‘Whidbey Follies’ laughs at island residents, visitors

Get drenched in the humor of The Shifty Sailors. Feel silky fine with The Satin Dolls. Tune up with The Sisters of Perpetual Maintenance and don’t be surprised when you see the Andrews Misters.

This year’s “Whidbey Follies” will feature a lighthearted look through music and comical satire at some of the current — and not so current — issues faced by visitors and residents of Whidbey Island. Whidbey Playhouse and Concerts on the Cove have teamed up to bring on the laughs with this 20th anniversary presentation of “The Whidbey Follies” through clips of some of original skits along with some original performers.

“Whidbey Follies” will be held at 1:30 and 7:30 p.m. Saturday at the Coupeville Performing Arts Center, 501 S. Main St., Coupeville. General admission is $15. For tickets over the phone or for information, call 360-679-2237.
