Seattle Shakespeare Company celebrates William Shakespeare's birthday with the liveliest auction in town -- Bill's Bash -- on Sunday, April 19 at the Cornish Playhouse at Seattle Center.

This entertaining evening starts with a silent auction with hearty appetizers and drinks at 5:00 PM for VIP Guests and at 5:30 for general admission. Guests can bid on a wide selection of auction items that include fantastic wines and spirits, Shakespeare related packages, and arts and entertainment experiences.

A live auction with auctioneer David Silverman is the centerpiece of the event. Some highlights include an exclusive lunch at the Dahlia Lounge with author Garth Stein (author of The Art of Racing in the Rain and the new novel A Sudden Light), a Wooden O performance in your own backyard, a "Sherlock in your home" evening with actor R. Hamilton reading of two Arthur Conan Doyle Sherlock Holmes stories, and a week's stay in a luxury condo in Kona, Hawaii. The evening's entertainment will wrap up with a selection of original songs composed specifically for previous Seattle Shakespeare Company productions.

Now in its 11th year, Bill's Bash raises significant funds to support Seattle Shakespeare Company's mission, including a full indoor season of productions, free park performances, and education and outreach programs that span Washington State. Sponsors for this year's Bill's Bash are The Boeing Company, CliftonLarsonAllen, Perkins Coie, and Tuxedoes and Tennis Shoes Catering and Events.

Tickets for Bill's Bash are $200 for VIP admission and $100 for general admission. Registration and full details are available at www.seattleshakespeare.org/billsbash, or by contacting Lauren Domino, Seattle Shakespeare Company Development Director, at laurend@seattleshakespeare.org or 206-733-8228 ext. 268.
