SUMMARY:Bold Voices: The Children
DESCRIPTION:The Children is the first staged reading in the 2026 Bold Voices series. A post-show discussion will follow both performances\n\nRetired nuclear physicists Robin and Hazel attempt to maintain normalcy as the world outside teeters in the aftermath of a disaster. When a former colleague arrives with an unsettling proposal\, they are forced to confront the legacy of their work\, their responsibility to the future\, and the moral weight of sacrifice. Lucy Kirkwood’s The Children is a taut\, unsettling exploration of aging\, legacy\, and environmental responsibility — a surprisingly funny\, yet razor-sharp thriller. A gripping drama about how small personal choices echo across generations.

DESCRIPTION:Celebrate Olympia’s vibrant live music scene with a showcase of the Pacific Northwest’s most soulful up-and-coming rock storytellers\, presented by CapCity Presents.\n\nYarrow opens the night with a lush set drawing equally from the psychedelic rock movement of the 60s and electric blues of the 50s to create new sounds\, songs and music. Yarrow lays down the groove and takes you to a timeless place where warm analog sound reverberates your bones to a feel good frequency you may have thought was a thing of the past. Yarrow – Bandcamp\n\nSeola Station is smoky folk rock – heavy on the rock. Their songs are poems with a rock heartbeat and a dual-guitar groove that suggest a range of influences including The Tragically Hip and The Muscle Shoals Rhythm Section\, with vocals that invite comparisons to Patti Smith and PJ Harvey. Formed in 2023 in Seattle\, they are known for their cathartic live shows and soulful storytelling. Seola Station Website\n\nFern Spores deliver femme-folk-rock known for gritty guitar leads\, haunting cello melodies\, and powerhouse vocals that leave audiences spellbound. Drawing inspiration from musical giants like Janis Joplin\, Alabama Shakes\, Susan Tedeschi\, and The Runaways\, Fern Spores infuse their music with a modern edge while paying homage to the raw energy and authenticity of their predecessors. Fern Spores Website\n\nDoors at 7pm | Yarrow at 7:30pm | Seola Station at 8:30pm | Fern Spores at 9:30pm
