“Turok” is more than a first-person shooter video game with a cult following. It’s also a musical suite.
As the Native American hero, Turok, fights dinosaurs – the soundtrack of his journey is marked by bombastic percussion, repetitive motifs in string and brass fanfares; then it slows down with long melodies for cellos and french horns.
It wasn’t an easy decision. But for Steven Goldfarb, closing the Seattle location of his family’s jewelry business, Alvin Goldfarb Jeweler, had to be done.
After adding the location at 600 Union St., Seattle five years ago, the Bellevue jeweler was doubling its efforts but not its profits. Going from store to store was diluting the time Goldfarb could dedicate the overall quality of Alvin Goldfarb Jeweler as a whole.

I am on a mission to be a cowgirl ever since seeing Village Theatre’s new musical “Annie Get Your Gun.” Or at least, to look like one.
Karen Ann Ledger did a fantastic job bringing out the old-timey beauty in female actors, from bandanna sashes and wide-brimmed hats to frilly petticoats and lace-up booties. Similarly, the male performers were transformed into boot-clickin’ buckaroos.

From the green skin of the Wicked Witch of the West, to the gun-totin’, sharp-shootin’ ways of a cowgirl, Vicki Noon stands out with the characters she portrays on stage.
With a powerhouse voice and lauded acting chops, it’s no wonder Noon made it from Village Theatre’s KIDSTAGE program to Broadway. Fresh from the national tour of “Wicked,” the 26-year-old Newcastle native will return to the Eastside to star as Annie Oakley in Village Theatre’s “Annie Get Your Gun,” premiering Nov. 9.
Debbie Nordstrom comes by her love of antiques honestly.
As a child, playing in the fields at her grandmother’s place in Maple Valley, Nordstrom would drop everything at the sound of a bell. Mounted to the top of the farmhouse door, it rang whenever customers had come to buy antiques.
