Photo Flash: Inside look at Village Theatre's 13th Annual Festival of New Musicals

It's one of my favorite weekends of the year. The weekend I get to spend three days listening to exciting new works as presented by some of the best performers Seattle has to offer. And this year Village Theatre did not disappoint as they invited members, performers, staff and press to partake of their Village Originals 13th Annual Festival of New Musicals. Some good, some maybe not so, some needing a little more work than others but all showing a deep love for the art and presented by some of the best voices in town. Now, I can't review them as they're still works in progress but I can tell you about the shows presented over the weekend and let you know about the one show that while still in development is still running one more weekend and can have tickets purchased to by non-members (that would be you, Dear Readers).

BWW Reviews: Hyde Park Theatre Keeps Austin Weird with THOM PAIN

If Thomas Paine is the author of Common Sense, then Thom Pain must be the author of Common Nonsense. Thom Pain (based on nothing)-a rambling, absurd, existential monologue now playing at Hyde Park Theatre-is an enthralling and joyously quirky piece of theater that is meant to be experienced and enjoyed but is never intended to make complete sense. But honestly, does life ever make sense in the first place?
