Summary for another New York Website

With an eighty year legacy of captivating performances, Seattle's 5th Avenue Theatre continues to astound with Broadway quality shows, musicals and revivals.

This season includes spectacular performances from British character actor Micheal York, Tim Burton's Edward Scissorhands brought vividly to life and the American classic, West Side Story, presented in all it's explosive musical glory.

Camelot is the magical story of King Arthur’s legendary Round Table. Based on T.H. White’s acclaimed novel The Once and Future King, Camelot recounts the forbidden attraction between Queen Guinevere and Sir Lancelot – a love affair that threatened the entire kingdom. Michael York, star of The Three Musketeers and Austin Powers, is a captivating King Arthur and the score includes the breathtaking “If Ever I Would Leave You” and “How to Handle a Woman.”

Edward Scissorhands, the much loved film by director Tim Burton, is brought vividly to life by Matthew Bourne and New Adventures. It’s the heart wrenching story of a boy created by an eccentric inventor, left with scissors for hands. As Edward struggles to find his place within suburban America, people battle with their own prejudices to accept him.

I heard that a cd by the rock band lovedrug matches up perfectly to the movie edward scissor hands--but check this; you turn your ipod/cd player on shuffle. I think the cd is called everything starts where it ends.
