The Arabian Nights is a full-length drama adapted for the stage by Mary Zimmerman from Powys Mather’s translation of The Book of Thousand Nights and One Night. Passionate, playful, provocative storytelling, The Arabian Nights examines the fascinating tale of Scheherazade. In the wake of discovering his queens infidelity cruel King Shahryar has soured on all womankind. Then theres no one left but clever Scheherazade. Can her 1001 cliffhanger stories keep her alive?
The Arabian Nights tells the tale of Scheherezades nightly telling of evocative tales. 1001 nights later the storyteller and listener are forever changed. A twelve-member cast enacts Scheherazade’s tales of love, lust, comedy, and dreams. Scheherazade’s cliffhanger stories prevent her husband, the cruel ruler Shahryar, from murdering her, and after 1,001 nights, Shahryar is cured of his madness, and Scheherazade returns to her family. This adaptation offers a wonderful blend of the lesser-known tales from Arabian Nights with the recurring theme of how the magic of storytelling holds the power to change people. The final scene brings the audience back to a modern day Baghdad with the wail of air raid sirens threatening the rich culture and history that are embodied by these tales.
Lady Phin’s looking to return to NWAC Championship Playoffs this season.
After making its first Northwest Athletic Conference (NWAC) playoff appearance in over 20 years, women’s basketball is eager to improve on last season’s results. With most of last year’s starting five back, the Lady Dolphins are hoping for an even better season this year. Heading up the roster is dominant floor general Aloha Akaka, utility forwards Gracing Browning and Katelyn Altaha, and Symone Pease posting up in the paint. In addition, injured last year, Leiah Naeata returns, adding tremendous depth to the offense. Rounding out the Dolphins are newcomers Taylor Eldridge, Moemannogi Notoa, Mahrysa Thomas, Nevaeh Williams, Maddi Lee, and Trista Dammal. Following their win over Bellevue College on Saturday, the Lady Dolphins lead the Northern Region.

Send them to Seattle Dance Fitness in Shoreline this Summer for camps focused on getting them dancing, moving & creating fun art & crafts!
Camp will start each day with 45-50 minutes of Hip Hop Kids Dance Fitness®.** The kids will take a brief snack break and then start creating fun art using different medians (i.e. yarn, tie dye technique, different types of paper, origami, and more).
Camp will end each day with plenty of time for free dance too!
Each week will incorporate music & art projects based on that week’s theme and will culminate in a short, informal showcase for caregivers on the final day of the camp. The kids will be excited to share some of the dances they’ve learned that week. We’ll encourage the kids to dress up in the theme on the final day as well!

A special event on campus today at Shoreline Community College in celebration of Lunar New Year– the Lion Dance! The event connected the campus with our relatively new ANAPISI center!!
February is Black History Month in the United States. Black History Month is an annual celebration of achievements by Black and African Americans and a time for recognizing their central role in U.S. history. The event was the brainchild of historian Carter G. Woodson and other prominent African Americans and has been officially recognized since 1976. To illuminate our commitment to Diversity, Equity and Inclusion, Shoreline CC will be providing a host of events to educate and celebrate black culture. A schedule of opportunities will be sent to the college early next week and we hope the entire college community will participate to learn more about traditions, barriers and opportunities to better serve our students.
Our first highlight to kick off Black History Month is:
Ellen Garrison Clark, a Black anti-slavery activist, civil rights advocate, and educator. Ms. Ellen Garrison Clark was born free in Concord, Mass., on April 24, 1823, owned by no one. She used her position to travel throughout the South for many years, teaching former slaves to read and write. Ms. Clark protected her citizenry with a passport, which confirmed her status as a free woman. Shoreline CC encourages you to explore more about Ellen Garrison Clark and her extensive contributions that advanced the lives of thousands of Black people.
