A Proper Place

Everett Performing Arts Center
2710 Wetmore Avenue Everett

Billed as "Downtown Abbey meets Gilligan's Island," this new musical farce is based on a play by Peter Pan scribe J.M. Barrie. Set in 1902, A Proper Place finds the wealthy Lord Loam and his family in a real spot of trouble: A group sailing excursion has gone horribly wrong, and now his clan of proper, upper-crust dilettantes are shipwrecked on a deserted island. Before long, they realize that their only hope for survival is to cast aside the strict social hierarchy of the mainland and allow their lowly butler to call the shots. Forbidden romance and family drama unfold to a lively score, when A Proper Place comes to the Everett Performing Arts Center.
