Watch Movies Like an Egyptian
SIFF Cinema reopens the Egyptian Theatre on Capitol Hill
When Landmark Theatres closed the Egyptian Theatre in June 2013, many locals proclaimed it a death knell for authentic Capitol Hill. (The death knells are becoming clangorous in this swiftly changing neighborhood.) The longstanding beacon of independent film—which started out as a Masonic temple—became a movie palace in the early 1980s, when the Seattle International…

When the Seattle Storefronts program took its first steps in 2010, the city was still climbing back from the economic downturn.

Our chat was a long and fascinating one that spanned the couple’s courtship,…
Rust on the Rails: New Sounds from Experienced Players
A team of accomplished musicians comes together to shake up the Emerald City
