Toad the Wet Sprocket Stops in Bellingham on their Good Intentions Tour

Toad The Wet Sprocket continue to uplift audiences with their melodic alt
rock guitars, introspective lyrics, and signature vocal harmonies that catapulted them to
mainstream success 30+ years ago! The 2025 Good Intentions tour will be traveling around the
U.S. with a stop at the Mount Baker Theatre in Bellingham on Thursday, July 24 featuring
Semisonic and Sixpence None the Richer.
Throughout their career, Toad The Wet Sprocket have been staunchly independent in their artistic
integrity. “We were young and it was us against the record company,” recalls guitarist Todd
Nichols of their early days. “We had a bit of punk-rock ethos.”
This commitment to stay true to themselves and DIY mentality also spilled over into the
enduring relationship with their fans. Amassing a mailing list of 70,000 at the start of their
career, the band forged deep connections with a devout and loyal core of fans, who they’ve
continued to grow with.

This Summer, Bellingham Theatreworks will produce three award winning and thought-provoking plays written by authors who explore how language can both set us apart and bring us together.
Audience members will experience the intimacy of being in the round at the Firehouse Arts and Events Center, sitting with the actors while they explore a hilarious satire, a lyric look at the past, and a heartfelt comic hug. All three plays have multiple scenes where the characters desperately want to communicate with each other but are faced with a language barrier. This summer’s offerings promise to explore how language is deeply aligned with culture and identity, and how it can lead to unexpected interpersonal challenges.

Our company combines many members of the community: students and educators, parents and children, as well as guest artists from far beyond Bellingham Bay, all working together to bring these three plays to life.

Fairhaven Summer Repertory Theatre - In Search of a Common Language @ Firehouse Arts and Events Center

Bellingham TheatreWorks and Fairhaven Summer Repertory Theatre present:
In Search of a Common Language
THE FOREIGNER
THE LANGUAGE ARCHIVE
TRANSLATIONS

This Summer, Bellingham Theatreworks will produce three award winning and thought-provoking plays written by authors who explore how language can both set us apart and bring us together.
Audience members will experience the intimacy of being in the round at the Firehouse Arts and Events Center, sitting with the actors while they explore a hilarious satire, a lyric look at the past, and a heartfelt comic hug. All three plays have multiple scenes where the characters desperately want to communicate with each other but are faced with a language barrier. This summer’s offerings promise to explore how language is deeply aligned with culture and identity, and how it can lead to unexpected interpersonal challenges.

Our company combines many members of the community: students and educators, parents and children, as well as guest artists from far beyond Bellingham Bay, all working together to bring these three plays to life.
