Terrence McNally is by far one of my favorite playwrights.

BWW Reviews: THE PRICE at ACT is Worth Paying
OK, so we'll start off with the fact that it's an Arthur Miller piece.
BWW Reviews: Well Performed and Harrowing A SMALL FIRE from Sound Theatre Company Misses the Mark
Maybe it was the fact that the theater was a hot box.
BWW Reviews: Faustian Silliness in Arouet's DON JUAN IN CHICAGO
I must apologize, Dear Readers, for getting this one to you so late.
BWW Reviews: ONCE at the Paramount - Touching and Simple Storytelling
We all know the annoying trend of turning every well-regarded or sellable movie into a Broadway Musical.
BWW Blog: To the Mothership - Day Five - If/Then
Well this is it, Dear Readers.
BWW Blog: To the Mothership - Day Four - HEATHERS: THE MUSICAL
It's day four Dear Readers, it's almost all over (sigh), and it's all slowing down.
BWW Blog: To the Mothership - Day Three - LADY DAY and BUYER & CELLAR
Day three was yet another roller coaster of emotions as we went from the tragic yet beautiful to the hilarious.
BWW Blog: To the Mothership - Day Two - GENTLEMAN'S GUIDE, MOTHERS AND SONS and HEDWIG
Day two, my three show day, is behind me Dear Readers and it was an absolutely exhilarating one filled with laughs, tears, and culminating in a stunner of a show.
BWW Blog: To the Mothership – Day One – CASA VALENTINA and SLEEP NO MORE
Greetings Dear Readers.
BWW Reviews: Village's FUNNY GIRL Brings the Sweet and Funny Plus the Power
OK let me start off by saying, Babs she ain't and thank God for that.
BWW Reviews: STAGEright's A NEW BRAIN Feels Undercooked
William Finn's shows are not easy to produce.
BWW Reviews: 5th Ave's A ROOM WITH A VIEW Searches for Identity
The main characters in the new musical version of "A Room with a View" spend their time trying to figure out who they want to become.
BWW Reviews: Seattle Shakes' KING LEAR Suffers Inconsistencies and Weak Choices
A Shakespearean classic directed by Sheila Daniels.
BWW Reviews: Sharp Tongues in Seattle Rep's WHO'S AFRAID OF VIRGINIA WOOLF?
As Americans we tend to love to witness a good familial car wreck.
BWW Reviews: Balagan's ERNEST SHACKLETON Has Come to Rescue Us from the Ordinary
It's not based on a book or a movie or (God forbid) a TV show.
BWW Reviews: Well Performed Frustration in ACT's BETHANY
There's a plot device that has annoyed me since I was a kid.
BWW Reviews: NCTC's TAILS OF WASPS Explores the 'What' of Scandal But Lacks the 'Why'
A world premiere play from one of Seattle's best, Stephanie Timm, directed by one of Seattle's best, Darragh Kennan and from one of Seattle's best theatre groups, New Century Theatre Company.
BWW Reviews: SEATTLE VICE at ACT Remembers the Smutty Fun
Psst! Hey Buddy! Yeah you! You lookin' for a good time with some scantily clad performers who are ready and willing to do whatever you want while putting on a hell of a show? Well then you'd better hop in your time machine and head back the 1960's because Seattle doesn't do that anymore.
BWW Reviews: SSR's KISS OF THE SPIDER WOMAN Lacks The Heat and The Fear
A musical about imprisonment, homosexuality, fascist regimes, revolutionaries, morphine addiction and a movie star; must be Kander and Ebb because only they could pull it off so beautifully.
BWW Reviews: THE TUTOR at Village Theatre Abandons Itself
You're a cute little new musical that has workshopped itself at Village in their Village Originals program twice before.
BWW Reviews: A Bit Too YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN at SMT Still Sparks With Life
I always question the wisdom of these smaller theaters working with almost no budgets putting up these big flashy Broadway shows.
BWW Reviews: Seattle Shakes' IMPORTANCE OF BEING EARNEST Is Thoroughly Delightful
When Seattle Shakespeare Company hits one out of the park they do it with gusto.
BWW Reviews: ROYAL BLOOD at West of Lenin Digs Up Dysfunction Amidst Perfection
I'll admit to a certain amount of trepidation when going to see the world premiere of "Royal Blood" by Sonya Schneider at West of Lenin.
BWW Reviews: THE SUIT at Seattle Rep is Simply Beautiful
I truly appreciate when a show realizes it doesn't need all the flash, all the bells and whistles, in order to be great.
