Mrs. Bave Presents the Pig War
Bellingham TheatreWorks presents the almost true story of a play that nearly happened about a war that never occurred. At the center of this comedy is the amazing and wacky tale of the Pig War of 1859, which was a border dispute between the United States and Britain over ownership of the San Juan Islands. This war is significant because diplomacy was ultimately chosen over war. From 1965 to 1985, Emelia Bave produced a play on San Juan Island commemorating the Pig War. Since no one on San Juan Island wanted to be in her play, for 20 years Mrs. Bave used mannequins instead of actors. But this time, her cantankerous Pig War mannequins spring to life!
