The latest reviews and critic recommendations from Seattle.
MACBETH at Seattle Repertory Theatre is hauntingly brilliant.
Lady Windermere's Fan at Taproot Theatre is a tapestry of tightly woven threads in which all are needed to tell the story.
The women of Five Lesbians Eating a Quiche attack the play with smiles, sugarcoated sarcasm, and thinly veiled sensuality.
Welcome to Arroyo's is the story of two siblings in the aftermath of the death of their mother.
Dear Readers, a few years back on one of my trips to the Mothership, I managed to catch Robert Askins' hilarious play "Hand to God" on Broadway and as soon as I finished wetting myself from laughter I thought, "Someone in Seattle needs to do this so my Dear Readers can wet themselves as well.
Once again, Dear Readers, we've ventured into the realm of one of my favorites.
I'll admit that I've never been what you would call a fan of 'Phantom of the Opera'.
Dear Readers, we're about to enter the realm of my favorite show of all time, that of Howard Ashman and Alan Menken's musical masterpiece "Little Shop of Horrors".
During the curtain speech Seattle Shakespeare Company Artistic Director (and director of the night's show) George Mount and Managing Director John Bradshaw joked on how they don't often get to present a Washington premiere since they usually deal in 400-year-old plays.
Claire Kiechel, author of "Pilgrims" currently being offered from Forward Flux Productions at West of Lenin, lists in her bio that she is a writer on Netflix's "The OA".
The family dramedy of a wedding in chaos is no new idea in fact it's been done to death.
Finally! In collaboration with Deaf Spotlight Presents, Sound Theatre Company has produced a bilingual "A Midsummer Night's Dream" with English and American Sign Language.
ArtsWest does it again with another cool, cutting-edge production about identity with their latest show, 'An Octoroon'.
As the folks at Washington Ensemble Theatre point out over and over in the lobby and in the press info of their latest offering, Jennifer Haley's "The Nether", the show is filled with trigger warnings and not for the faint of heart.
Slice of life plays can be difficult, at least I've always found them so.
It did not surprise me in the least to discover that Horse in Motion's immersive “Hamlet” is completely sold out for the remainder of its run.
Book-It Repertory Theatre has once again brought to life another gripping tale, this time with Junot Diaz's, "The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao", as adapted and directed by Elise Thoron.
On the surface Olivia Dufault's "Year of the Rooster" doesn't seem like a fun night out filled with laughs.
When you think the classic era of Broadway Musicals, many lean toward Rodgers and Hammerstein or Lerner and Loewe but for my money I always go right to Cole Porter.
“Crowns” is a feel-good musical about hats.
Theater Schmeater's 'The Country Wife' satirizes an appalling production from 1675 by the same name.
'The Happiest Song Plays Last' puts two dissonant narratives side by side.
Don't let the fact that the title has the word "naked" in it or that the same word is repeated several times in the opening number fool you.
Seattle Public Theater tends towards the darker, edgier plays.
If you're familiar with Lauren Yee, possibly from her previous premiere here in Seattle of 'The King of the Yees' last year, you know of her gift for storytelling and crisp dialog.
