Must See
Choreographer Kate Wallich’s Splurge Land

(4/2 to 4/5, times vary) Emerging Seattle choreographer Kate Wallich continues to skyrocket in her career. Her new work, Splurge Land, showcases her trademark blend of millennial malaise, cinematic music and strobe-light glimpses of a nightclub, all backed by exquisite modern form.

Must Celebrate
Kick Off National Poetry Month with a Reading

Friday (4/3, 7 p.m.) Pulitzer Prize–winning poet Rae Armantrout is known for her short, sharp line lengths, humor, rhythm and an immersive approach—not to mention a lyrical eye toward domestic affairs. She’ll read from her new collection, Itself.

Must Root for the Home Team
Mariners’ Opening Day is Here!

Monday (4/6, 1:10 p.m.) This season we’ll cheer for the Mariners under all-new, eco-friendly LED lights. (Safeco was the first MLB stadium to install them.) All the better to see the Ms play the Los Angeles Angels in the home opener.

Must Revisit the Battle for Booze
MOHAI’s American Spirits Exhibit

(Opens 4/2, times vary) With Washington playing guinea pig for pot legalization, the Museum of History and Industry looks back at the national battle over another illicit substance: booze. The new exhibit American Spirits traces the history and repercussions of Prohibition.
