Live History at Saar Cemetery
This play, featuring the Book-It Repertory Theatre, brings back to life some of the people buried in the Saar Pioneer Cemetery. In 2005, the South King County Genealogical Society took on the monumental task of restoring the cemetery, located at 91st and 212th Way, Kent. The final resting place of nearly 200 early residents of Kent and surrounding areas was overgrown with weeds, blackberry briars, unkempt trees and shrubs. A team of volunteer researchers have gathered information on every identified inhabitant of the cemetery. The information was later written into the play which is featured here, and is partially sponsored by 4 Culture.
