Seattle is known for Frasier, coffee and tech bros. But it's not known for its history, and that's a shame because Seattle’s history is bonkers. It honours its founding fathers, but there is a founding mother who is written out of history books because of her trade: Madam Lou Graham. Join award-winning performer, Kate Danley, for a funny, fascinating, meticulously researched look at one of Seattle's most influential and erased power players. Truth is stranger than fiction, and you couldn't make this up. For You’re Dead to Me and Horrible Histories fans.
