Interesting....both theatres are relatively moderate in size (less than 600 seats). Many who saw it at Ogunquit (680 seats) found the show experience more intimate than in the usual large theatre setting.

As of today, these shows have yet to be listed as having been licensed by MTI.

While not in text on their list, if you click on the location arrows on the map they provide, you can see there is one for the Washington locations. I had discovered that before I made the initial post in this thread.

I've watched this video twice, and I must say it looks like quite a high quality production. The folks in the Washington State area will be in for a treat!
