Local Critics

Jay Irwin

Born and raised in Seattle, WA, Jay has been a theater geek for years. He attends as many shows as he can around the country and loves taking in new exciting works.

Three-letter rating system on each review is as follows. They range from best to worst as WOW (A can’t miss), YAY (Too damn good), MEH+ (Good, with some great things going for it), MEH (Just OK), NAH (You can miss this one) and WTF (I think you can figure out my complex code there).

Jay is also an actor in the local Seattle scene. Follow me on Twitter @SeattleBdwyGeek or on Threads @jdirwin14 or BlueSky Social at @seattlebdwygeek.bsky.social. You can also check me out in my web series "The Gamers: The Shadow Menace" available on Amazon Prime.

Shelley Dean

Shelley is equally passionate about theatre and journalism. A Seattle native, she grew up performing and now works in public relations. After spending the past five years in New York, Shelley is pumped to be back in Washington reviewing the great work put on all around Seattle.
