Wild things happening at Crown Hill Center

Workers are transforming the former Crown Hill School play courts at the Crown Hill Center into the new 5,000 square foot Gilbert & Sullivan Society set-building and dance/rehearsal space – a $250,000 project.

The Gilbert & Sullivan Society was founded in 1954 and is one of the oldest performing arts organizations in Seattle. It is relocating from 522 Dexter Ave. N. to the Crown Hill Center, located at 9250 14th Ave. N.W.

The society will next present "La Perichole" Feb. 19 through Feb. 21 at Town Hall.
