Village Theatre

It’s the jukebox musical nobody asked for! First there was Mamma Mia!, then Jersey Boys, then Beautiful: The Carole King Musical—and now, at last, there’s We Ain’t Ever Gonna Break Up, the bio-musical that charts the fictional lives of the most famous folk duo that never existed, chock full of the absolute best songs from their completely fictional catalogue.&nbsp; 
From their earliest days performing Christian folk through an unforgettably muddy performance at Woodstock to their hysterically misguided children’s television show, Saul Hymon and Bart Parfunkel have lived (and sung!) through it all. Expect an evening of ear-to-ear smiles and belly-laughs as Hymon and Parfunkel—in tour-de-force performances by writers Gregg Hammer and Louis Pardo—satirically skewer the jukebox musical while playing every role (and every instrument!) in this brand-new feel-good buddy show.&nbsp; 
Will the perfect fictional folk duo find superstardom, or will they break up? You’ll have to come see to find out!

What if your creativity isn’t gone… just waiting for you to feel safe enough to access it again?
So many high-capacity women have learned how to stay in control, stay productive, stay “on”… but somewhere along the way, the connection to creativity, vision, and expression gets quiet.
Awaken Your Creative Gifts is where that begins to open again.
This is not about pushing for ideas or trying harder. It’s about softening your system… so your natural creativity can rise.
Through Bio-Energy Healing, meditation, music, and guided creative exploration, you’ll release what’s been holding you back and reconnect with your authentic voice and inner vision.
You don’t need more discipline. You need space to feel, receive, and express.
This special collaborative experience features:
Angela Soffe. Founder. Music Producer. Composer. An award-winning songwriter and producer with credits including HULU, Freeform, Disney+, Broadway World Magazine, commercials, and independent films.
As the founder of GlowBox Productions, Angela creates emotionally resonant music for film, TV, and artists. Known for her piercing lyrics and anthemic, yet intimate sound, she also delivers powerful keynote experiences that guide audiences back to their creative roots. A reminder that what you’re searching for has always been within you.
📅 Saturday, May 30, 2026 🕓 4:00–6:00 PM (Arrive at 3:30 PM) 📍 The Grove, Issaquah

“I think open mic helps promote music in the community as part of the
 effort to promote all forms of art, Bob said. “It offers a chance for 
folks to gather and play music as well as develop new musical 
friendships. We try to foster our open mics as an opportunity for 
beginners, intermediates, as well as advanced performers to play. Young 
and old and all in between are welcome. “
Bob said the Historic Issaquah Train Depot is the perfect venue. “It 
has great ambience and allows us to focus exclusively on promoting music
 and musical friendships.”
