STG in NYC

6 members of STG’s staff are in NYC right now for the APAP (Association of Performing Arts Presenters) Conference.


Bagels and lox at Katz's Deli on the lower eastside is an STG tradition every APAP!

Last night’s adventures included Fela and Sammy’s Romanian Steakhouse on the Lower East Side.



Fela is an incredible show that we hope makes it to Seattle sometime soon. A heartbreaking story of a Nigerian musician and political activist and his brave struggle held us captive throughout. The cast literally taught the audience to shake their booties. Spike Lee was sitting right next to us and clearly loved the show too.



We then went on to Sammy’s Roumanian Steakhouse for some old school Jewish cooking. Complete with a karaoke DJ who was a riot, a good time was had by all.

Hopefully there'll be more to come in the way of reports from STG in NYC...stay tuned!

Never seen a Taiko performance before? Even if you have, we doubt it was anything like this one:

Hope to see you at the show at STG's Moore Theatre on January 29th! Tickets are on sale now.
