This month in City Arts Seattle

In this month's City Arts, a chain letter leads to theatrical revelations, a pop film brings out a nation's true history, and a debilitating disease can't beat a strong heart:

Fwd: an interview with the New Century Theatre Company, conducted via chain letter.

Renew: a year after nine mysterious sculptures appeared in Gas Works Park, the work lives on in Seattle's gardens.

Not Fade Away: former U-Men guitarist Tom Price can't stop making music, even while battling Parkinson's.

Kissed by a Muse: Xanadu was only a film, but for some it was life-altering experience, even with the corny parts. 

Team Quileute: SAM helps to expose a tribe's true culture, without the werewolves. 

Plus: Sound on the Sound's Abbey Simmons hanging at the Columbia City Theater, the Style Scholar creates a look that includes bacon and PBR, Bumbershoot's new take on the literary life, No Depression's Kyla Fairchild explains how fashion is her art, the latest on local art in News & Notes, and all the best upcoming happenings are tracked for you in this month's NOW calendar. And then some.
