“whorehouse” Those whores are at it again — getting all uppity about being a victimless crime and whatnot. Such is the case at Tacoma Little Theatre as it finishes its season with “The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas,” a look at life and politics surrounding the Chicken Ranch.

As most of you know, I’m a big history buff. And, well, I sort of like theater too, so when there are times to mix the two, I take notice. There was “1776” at Tacoma Little Theatre last year, “Anne Frank” earlier this year at Lakewood Playhouse and a smattering of
