A night at Seattle’s Benaroya Hall is always worth it.

The movie Elf is one of those films that sticks with you throughout your life; you remember the spaghetti, the syrup, and the unrivaled holiday cheer from the unique story.

Stage adaptations of movies are always tricky, but there’s a certain level of prestige that comes with adapting and pulling off one of the most loved and highly regarded movie adaptations of all time.
Review: DISNEY'S THE MUPPET CHRISTMAS CAROL at Benaroya Hall
Bravo to the Seattle Symphony for offering these holiday feasts for all the senses as much-welcomed gifts of love and cheer.
Review: COME FROM AWAY at The Seattle Rep
Dear Readers, back in 2015 we were blessed with the masterpiece that is “Come From Away” by Irene Sankoff and David Hein.
Review: ANYTHING GOES at Reboot Theater
Cole Porter’s gold standard musical Anything Goes is a blast from the past, but Reboot Theatre’s Anything Goes blasts audiences directly into the future by putting the entire musical in space.
Review: THE HUMANS at Sound Theatre Company
The Humans might be the perfect show to see in that strange, autumnal window between Halloween and Thanksgiving happening now, walking the line between a haunted house story and a family drama.
Review: SHUCKED at The Paramount Theatre
Dear Readers, I want to talk to you about somewhat under the radar shows, and corn.
Review: EULOGY, or HOW TO PLAN YOUR OWN FUNERAL (AND HAVE FUN DOING IT) at 12th Ave Arts
At the theater’s entrance, audience members are handed a packet of tissues sealed with a photo of a frowning man in a birthday hat—Brendan Healy.
Review: CHICAGO at The 5th Avenue Theatre
Dear Readers, if you’re a die-hard musical theater nerd like me, there are certain shows that just feel like a warm hug.
Review: THE MANOR at MAP Theatre
What did our critic think of THE MANOR at MAP Theatre?
Review: THE LITTLE FOXES at Intiman Theatre
It’s spooky season, and what’s spookier than a wealthy, greedy family willing to do anything to fulfill their selfish desires? Moral decay lies at the heart of Lillian Hellman’s The Little Foxes, now performing at Intiman Theatre in a production by The Feast.
Review: Lea Salonga Brings STAGE, SCREEN & EVERYTHING IN BETWEEN to Benaroya Hall
There’s truly no feeling quite like being in the presence of a legend.
Review: STAGE OF FOOLS at Seattle Public Theater
Dear Readers, I love a good farce.
Review: AN ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE at Union Arts Center
Sometimes, Dear Readers, a play can come along that feels so topical, and so raw, that you may walk out of the theater feeling uneasy.
Review: FANCY DANCER at The Seattle Rep & Seattle Children's Theatre
Dear Readers, what did you want to be when you grew up? Firefighter? Doctor? Lawyer? Bathroom attendant? Dragon? All worthy goals.
Review: BRIGADOON at Village Theatre
Musical theater productions serve different purposes: some embrace or challenge the cultural milieu, keeping audiences keenly aware of the context with which the musical exists, and others invite a full escape, an invitation into a completely different world.
Review: SUFFS at The 5th Avenue Theatre
Dear Readers, lately it feels like our most basic and dearly held civil liberties are being stripped away.
Review: SOME LIKE IT HOT at The Paramount Theatre
Dear Readers, first off there were way too many empty seats at the Paramount last night for the new musical version of “Some Like It Hot”.
Review: HELLS CANYON at 12th Ave Arts
What do we mean when we say someone is “like family”? In Washington Ensemble Theatre’s Hells Canyon, playwright Keiko Green takes that question and reveals the complicated debts, histories, and power dynamics hiding underneath.
Review: THE PLAY THAT GOES WRONG at The Seattle Rep
Dear Readers, whether you want to admit it or not, we all love a little bit of schadenfreude to some extent.
