NOTES
MBT’s New Mobile-Friendly
Website is Here!
As technology changes, Mount Baker Theatre
constantly evaluates what we’re doing and what we
Brad Burdick, Executive Director
need to do to stay on top and provide the very best
possible experience for our customers. With this in mind, the Mount Baker Theatre
board recently approved making a substantial investment in our website. It’s been
several years since we overhauled the site, and during that time we’ve realized that there
are plenty of things we can do differently and better.
One of the latest trends in web design is for web pages to be “responsive.” This
means that no matter which form of technology you use—computer, tablet, or
smart phone—you’ll get access to the entire site with the easiest navigation and best
optimization possible. This means less zooming, squinting, and resizing, but with the
full information usually missing from “mobile optimized” webpages. This also means
improved accessibility and navigation of our calendar of events, access to even more
sneak-peak show videos, and an overall improved and simplified purchasing process.
We have worked with an outstanding web design firm called Domain7. Their
strategy: “foster a highly collaborative research-based approach to architecting
on-line experiences.” Based on findings from a thorough research and vision stage,
the designers created a product with the user-experience top of mind—they call it
“humanizing the web.” With that in mind, we are very interested in hearing
what you think about our new site. To provide input just send an email to
[email protected] and put “Web Site” in the subject line, or simply
contact E-Marketing Specialist Caitlyn Klein at (360) 733-5793 x 308.
We are now one of the first performing arts centers on the west coast to have a
responsive website and this significant improvement will be much more convenient
for our customers! Let us know what you think.
But in the meantime… please enjoy the show!

Directed and founded by trumpet player Cindy Shea in 1999, the Mariachi
Divas have made big waves on the national and international music scene. With
one GRAMMY Award, and five GRAMMY nominations, including one Latin
GRAMMY nomination, the Mariachi Divas are a unique, multicultural, all female
ensemble, imbued with the true flavor of Los Angeles. All together, the Divas
discography includes nine albums released through Shea Records and East Side
Records. This year marks their 16th anniversary.
The group’s first GRAMMY Award, in 2009
for Best Regional Mexican Album of the year
for Canciones De Amor, was the first time an
all female mariachi group was nominated
and won the National Academy of Recording
Arts and Sciences award. Other GRAMMY
nominations include:
• 2014 - A Mi Manera, nominated for
Best Regional Mexican Album of the
Year (including Tejano), GRAMMY
Awards.
•
2013 - Oye, nominated for Best
Regional Mexican Album of the Year
(including Tejano), GRAMMY Awards
•
2012 - “Ay Mi Mexico” in the Oye
Album, nominated for Best Regional
Mexican Song of the Year, Latin
GRAMMY Awards
•
2012 - Orale, nominated for Best
Regional Mexican Album of the Year,
GRAMMY Awards
•
2010 - 10 Aniversario, nominated for Best
Regional Mexican Album of the Year,
GRAMMY Awards
In addition to their musical career, the Divas
have appeared in independent films including
Dead Man’s Shoe, Ren and La Dentista, in which
music from their album was used in the movie’s
soundtrack. The Divas’ rendition of the Ricky
Martin hit, “La Bomba” was used in a film
released in 2008 called Julia. Additionally, their
music is included in the 2012 movie release of
Mariachi Gringo and two of their Christmas
songs are featured on Hallmark cards.
Since 2003, the Mariachi Divas perform at the
Disneyland Resort in Anaheim, delighting
audiences of all ages on a weekly basis.
CINDY SHEA’S RESUME
When the Divas take the stage, eyebrows
usually rise and behind the whispers you hear,
“What is the blonde girl doing playing Mariachi
music?” Cindy was eight years old and wanted
to play the trumpet. Her parents provided
once-a-week lessons for their daughter, but
Cindy wanted more, so the entrepreneur started
giving private lessons of her own to pay for her
own advancements in music so that she could
study with the best studio musicians L.A. had
to offer including: Ron Stout, Wayne Bergeron,
Bobby Shew, Bill Bing, Kevin Brown, and Kevin
Mayse. While studying music education at Cal
State University at Fullerton, Cindy came upon
an opportunity to play for Arturo Sandoval, an
icon in the Latin Jazz arena. Impressed by her
musical knowledge and raw talent, he offered
Cindy a full paid scholarship to study jazz at
Florida International University, where he
would be her mentor and teacher.
When Cindy returned to Los Angeles, she
joined the band of Yari More, and with his help
Cindy soon became a regular in the L.A. Salsa
scene. It was also through an invitation from
Yari More that Cindy would perform at various
venues including the House of Blues, L.A. & San
Francisco Sports Arena, and the Playboy Jazz
Festival at the Hollywood Bowl accompanying
the legendary “Queen of Salsa,” Celia Cruz. As
Cindy made her name known in music circles
another new challenge was waiting around the
corner. Mariachi Las Alondras, an all-female
band, was looking for a trumpet player, and
new it was, for she was forced to rely mostly
on her ear, throw away her music stand, and
transpose music on the spot. When Mariachi
Las Alondras broke up in 1999, a core group
of girls wanted to stay together and Mariachi
Divas was born.
Besides working to promote Mariachi Divas,
Cindy has continued to expand her own
personal knowledge of Latin music. She has had
the opportunity to tour throughout the United
States and Mexico with the brass section of “El
Rey del Jaripeo,” Joan Sebastian and his son,
Jose Manuel Figueroa. She has also appeared
with artists such as Alejandro Sanz, Charlie
Zaa, Paulina Rubio, Jaci Velasquez, Son By Four,
Melina Leon, Chayanne, Pedro Fernandez,
Marco Antonio Solis, Jenni Rivera, Graciela
Beltran, Cachao, Rogelio Martinez, Nestor
Torrez, Paquito de Rivera and Peabo Bryson,
and recently was invited to serenade Luis
Miguel for his birthday along with the Divas.
Cindy has also had TV appearances including:
The Ritmo Latino Awards, Premio Lo Nuestro
Awards, Orto Rollo, Ally McBeal and Desperate
Housewives. Her trumpet can be heard on
various television shows, jingles, commercials,
and CDs including her latest recordings on
novelas and soundtracks: Amigos Por Siempre,
Complices Al Rescate, Reto Burundis, Codigo
Fama, Banda Boom Vol. 7, Andy Vargas,
and Marco Antonio Muniz’s latest album, a
production by Armando Manzanero.
Cindy’s experience with different genres
of music has allowed her to create her own
style in the mariachi music scene that stands
out from the rest. Cindy has seen her group
through many changes and is very proud of
its multicultural, eclectic, and innovative style
and sound. As the director of Mariachi Divas,
she will continue to prove that music has no
boundaries and is not dictated by age, race or
gender.

Mount Baker Theatre is performed by

COMMUNITY
MBT Education Program
T
he Wade Bennett King Education
Series is a community engagement program provided by the theatre for public, private, and home schools in Whatcom, Skagit,
Island, and upper Snohomish counties. This
exceptional program enriches school curricula while providing students with the cultural
experience that comes from early exposure to
professional live performance. When available, study guides pertaining to each show are
provided to teachers, giving them an opportunity to use the shows as educational tools
“The Theatre is an awesome,
magical place for children.”

in their classrooms. Question-and-answer
sessions are frequently offered after the shows,
providing an opportunity for the students to
interact directly with the actors.
During the 2013-2014 school year, the
theatre hosted more than 15,600 students and
teachers at performances ranging from stunt
dogs and African folktales to traditional stage
Click, Clack, Moo, May 13, 2015
A presentation of the Wade Bennett King Education Series
plays and musicals. The Education Series often features stage adaptations of well-known
children’s literature, providing an opportunity for young people to look at reading
and stories in a whole new way. To borrow
a quote from Faustworks Mask Theatre, the
goal of the Education Series is to “excite the
student to continue learning well beyond the
performance they have just seen.” For many
students this is the only live theater experience they have had.
Our 19th Education Series begins in
October 2014 with Cirque Mechanics and
extends through May 2015. Education
brochures for the 2014-15 Season featured the
names of all business sponsors and community donors whose support makes this program
possible. MBT is dedicated to honoring and
raising community awareness about the
strong commitment our sponsors make to the
children of Bellingham and surrounding
areas. For more information about the
Education Series please contact Alison C.
Terry, Program Manager, at (360) 733-5793.
The Education Series is sponsored by the
Frank King Family in memory of their son
Wade.

Mount Baker Theatre:
A Community Legacy
Adapted by Katharine Conrad
Courtesy of Mount Baker Theatre
Nestled in the heart of downtown Bellingham, the Mount Baker Theatre (MBT) is a
wonderfully preserved example of the “movie palaces” built across the United States
during the early 20th century. It opened on
April 29, 1927, and has been in continuous
use ever since, earning a place on the National Register of Historic Buildings in 1978.
Drawing more than100,000 patrons to live
performances each year, MBT has provided enjoyment to generations of audiences
and continues to be a major attraction in
downtown Bellingham. The theatre building is owned by the Bellingham-Whatcom
Public Facilities District and managed by the
nonprofit Mount Baker Theatre organization. The dedicated staff operate the business
and continue to restore and improve the
building.
The theatre was built as part of the Fox
movie and vaudeville circuit and designed
by architect Robert Reamer, whose other
designs include Seattle’s 5th Avenue Theatre,
Spokane’s Fox Theatre, and the Bellingham
Towers. For MBT, he selected a Spanish-Moorish theme, intending for the lobby
to resemble “a captain’s cabin on a Spanish
galleon.” To achieve this effect, master craftsmen used feathers to paint a wood grain
on the plaster ceiling. Even with modern
lighting, many visitors today do not realize
that the ceiling does not include even one
piece of wood.
MBT was built at a turning point in entertainment history and is uniquely known as a
“transitional theatre” designed for both silent
movies and vaudeville. It has a projection
booth, screen, and Wurlitzer pipe organ, plus
a full stage, orchestra pit, and dressing rooms
for performances. Six months after it opened,
the first successful talking film was released,
and soon after that, radio stations made
entertainment available in living rooms from
coast to coast. Due to this, the entertainment
industry experienced drastic changes. Silent
films disappeared, and the stars of vaudeville
found a new home on the radio airways. New
theatres were designed for either films or live
performances, but not for both. MBT still has
all of its film and performance capabilities, as
well as original custom-made furnishings and
fixtures, and welcomed back a refurbished
Wurlitzer this past fall.
MBT thrived as a cinema until the 1970s,
when multi-screen complexes became the
norm. The 1,500-plus seat theatre was too big
for the commercial film market, and there
was a real threat that, like many other movie
palaces, the building would be demolished.
A group of citizens – dedicated supporters
Charles LeCocq, Jim Zervas, Jean Gorton, and
Edward Harris among them – calling themselves the Mount Baker Theatre Committee
rallied the community to save the theatre, and
in 1984 the building was purchased by the
city of Bellingham. During the next 10 years,
the committee and the city worked together
to plan the future of the theatre, and in 1993
the committee, renamed the Mount Baker
Theatre Corporation, signed a 20-year lease
to manage and restore the theatre. A capital
campaign raised $1.6 million to renovate the
stage and backstage to accommodate large
productions, refurbish the seats and carpet,
and restore the fixtures. Decades’ worth of
dust, tobacco smoke residue, and paint were
carefully cleaned away to restore the original
ornate decorations, and the theatre reopened
on September 29, 1995.
During the following decade, the storefronts
adjacent to the building were converted into
two smaller venues to accommodate more
diverse programming and provide additional
options for community use. With capacity for
about 120 people, the Encore Room primarily
hosts lectures, corporate functions, private
receptions, and cozy local productions. The
Harold & Irene Walton Theatre, originally
known as the Studio Theatre, is the home of
the popular MBT Rep program and seats up
to 300 people in a variety of intimate configurations, from cabaret tables to theatre-in-theround.
In 2008, MBT’s Main Stage and lobby closed
for nine months for “Phase II” of renova-
tions, which modernized its internal systems.
More than 1,500 LED lights replaced the old
incandescent lighting in the auditorium and
chandelier, recreating the special lighting
effects of 1927 with energy efficiency. A new
heating system replaced the old boiler, and
a much-needed air conditioning system replaced the giant fan apparatus. Other improvements included an updated sound system and
new security features.
Today the theatre hosts more than 300
events annually; the “MBT presents” series
features a carefully selected combination of
national tours and in-house productions,
while venue renters ranging from local community organizations to the biggest names in
entertainment utilize MBT services to present
both public performances and private events.
The rich diversity of presenters allows for
an equally rich variety of shows, including
Broadway musicals, rock concerts, classical
symphonies, stand-up comedians, ballets, and
much more. This once-neglected movie palace
is now the premier performing arts venue in
Northwest Washington with a legacy that can
continue to benefit the community for many
generations to come. See page 38 for more
MBT history.

Money Melody
Jekyll & Hyde
Mamma Mia!
By Ramona Abbott
Let’s say you and your sweetie are sitting
around on a Thursday night, wondering,
“Whatever shall we do this weekend? Hmm.
Perhaps we should go to a show. Let’s see what’s
playing at Mount Baker Theatre.”
“Oooh,” you say. “Here’s Broadway Show X.
Gosh, I’ve been wanting to see that for a long
time. But wait. It’s $69 each, plus fees! I’ve
heard those fees are astronomical, maybe $10
per ticket. Now we’re talking $160 for the two
of us. For a show? Maybe not.”
That’s one way to think of it. Here’s another.
Broadway shows are expensive. First, there
are the rights to the show, which are very expensive – think tens to hundreds of thousands
of dollars right there. Add in directors, actors,
costumes, props, stage design, lighting design,
stage dressing, wigs, hair, makeup, stage managers, prop managers, etc. And let’s not forget about the music! Add in musicians, conductors,
and all their associated needs, too.
And the entire thing has to be built: gaffers, stagehands, stage crews, carpenters, painters,
electricians. The list goes on and on. So by the time you get to a show playing on Broadway, what
might you expect to pay? We thought we’d take an illustrative look at show prices.
Of course, this depends on the night of the week and the quality of the seats. Let’s take a quick
spin through a typical Thursday night show in New York City:
Ticket Face Value
Fees Per Ticket
Total Ticket Cost
Orchestra, pref. - $149.50
$48.59
$198.09
Premium - $199.00
$64.68
$263.68
Yes. That’s right. For just two of you, you’ll be looking at $400-500 dollars. Now, if you’d like
to sit in the Mezzanine, far side, nose-bleed seats (like MBT’s value seats, only way higher up and
much farther away), you can get away with a hair under $200.
But not so fast. First you have to get to New York City. For the two of you, that’s $1,000 - $1,200.
Hotel? We looked at a range around Times Square, so you’d be decently close to Broadway. Let’s
say you fly in the night before the show and leave the next day (which might be insane, but we’re
just looking at the cost of seeing the show here, not visiting Aunt Tillie and Uncle Mort to boot).
For your basic Hilton in the financial district, that is going to set you back $600-$900. If you
want to go high class and stay at the Waldorf Suites, then you’re looking at $1,400-$1,950.
Let us review:
Tickets
Budget: $360
Medium: $400
Premier: $540
Flight
Coach: $1,000
Biz Class: $1,700
First Class: $2,250
Hotel
$650
$1,000
$1,950
$2,010
$3,100
$4,740
Total for 2 People
Well, alrighty then! And we haven’t even started thinking about meals. (Your faithful author
did take a spin through a few sites seeing how much a good steak dinner costs in NYC, and all
she can say is yowza. Perhaps a nice granola bar for supper instead.) All of a sudden, a couple
hundred dollars isn’t looking so bad.
“But,” you might say, “I don’t have to go all the way to NYC to see a touring Broadway show.
I can go to Vegas! Vegas is cheap.” To which your faithful author will reply: When was the last
time you were in Vegas? She used to think it was cheap too, probably because it used to be. Sadly,
no more. Now that Vegas is all about shopping, fine dining, and bringing along the entire wedding party for bachelor and bachelorette parties, the prices of everything there have spiked. So
let’s take a look-see:
Tickets
Budget: $120
Medium: $215
Premier: $278
Flight
Coach: $ 576
Biz Class: $1,000
First Class: $ 1600
Hotel
$ 100
$ 254
$ 375
Total for 2 people
$ 796
$1,465
$2,253
For a final comparison, let’s look at just popping down to Seattle. We’ll stay over one night, so
we don’t have to drive home in the wee hours.
Tickets (with fees)
Budget: $72
Medium: $208
Premier: $268
Gas
$ 50
$50
$50
Hotel
$ 100
$ 150
$ 200
Total for 2 People
$222
$408
$518
And that’s without dinner. Here in the ‘Ham, a lovely dinner for two should run you $40-$60,
tops. In Seattle, figure double that.
Seeing that same show here at MBT, your range of total costs for two people will range from
just $40 on the lowest end to $198 at the top. You can get premium seats and a great dinner, all for
less than the price of nosebleed tickets in Seattle. Plus, no driving, and you can be snug at home
in your own bed that very same night. What’s not to like about that? Just another reason to love
seeing touring Broadway shows right here at home!
