Think of a rock & roll-circus-ninja-dance-comedy-action-movie, except it’s performed live on stage. In “THE JACKET,” an omnipotent jacket imbues the wearer with super human power in a show jam-packed with acrobatics, juggling, combat, music, and comedy.

When “local legend” NANDA departed from Port Townsend two and a half years ago, the members never knew where their journey would lead them, only that it would be filled with adventure. Since leaving the familiar streets of the troupe’s home town, NANDA has toured throughout the US, Mexico, and Canada, working with some of the world’s most renowned variety show entertainers and musicians.
