Playwright Elizabeth Coplan presents her short play, "Something Wicked," a humorously serious or seriously funny (take your pick) creative endeavor to add some humor to our post-election blues. The play, produced by Parley Productions, debuted in Seattle on December 16 at 12th Avenue Arts. Its talented cast will reprise their roles on the stage in the BIMA Auditorium.
