BWW Reviews: FIRST DATE at ACT
If you choose to take a date (first or otherwise) to the new World Premiere musical "First Date" currently being presented at ACT and co-produced through ACT and the 5th Avenue Theatre, you may end up getting quite sentimental and mushy towards your date as the evening wears on.
BWW Reviews: OR, at the Seattle Rep
Right from the moment we first meet Aphra (Kirsten Potter) at the top of the Seattle Rep's current production of "Or," by Liz Duffy Adams, we know we are in for one hell of a ride.
BWW Reviews: FREUD’S LAST SESSION at Taproot Theatre
Religion vs.
BWW Reviews: RED at the Seattle Rep
Theatrically the questions of "What is art?" and "Can art be commercialized" are not new ones.
BWW Reviews: LARK EDEN at Theater Schmeater
A play is only as strong as its weakest link and when that link is the structure of the play then the rest will suffer immensely.
BWW Reviews: HOLY DAYS from New Century Theatre Company
I don't mean to be cruel, dear readers, but I'm about to tell you about one of the most gloriously simple and quietly profound shows that you'll probably not get to see.
BWW Reviews: A SINGLE SHARD at Seattle Children’s Theatre
OK, so I'll admit I was hesitant to start reviewing at the Children's Theatre.

BWW Reviews: IT SHOULDA BEEN YOU at Village Theatre
Village Theatre has a tradition of bringing up new musicals (often ones showcased in their Village Originals Festival) onto the Mainstage.
BWW Reviews: PYGMALION from Seattle Shakespeare Company
There are some authors who just have a complete mastery of storytelling and the English language so that their works live on forever.

BWW Reviews: OKLAHOMA at the 5th Avenue Theatre
What do you do with a dated overdone musical that every High School on earth has done in order to make it fresh for a professional run? Well, you could pair up with a local dance theater to punch up those outrageous dance sequences to give the audience something new.
BWW Reviews: A CHORUS LINE at Seattle Musical Theatre
For musical theaters "A Chorus Line" is pretty much the holy grail of musicals.

BWW Reviews: BEAUTY AND THE BEAST at the Paramount
Anyone who knows me knows of my love for Howard Ashman.
BWW Reviews: WEB from STAGEright is a Stunner
It's not easy coming up with a new twist on a beloved classic especially a beloved children's classic such as E.
BWW Reviews: ROSENCRANTZ AND GUILDENSTERN ARE DEAD at Seattle Public Theater
When tackling a play such as "Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead", as is currently being tackled by Seattle Public Theater, you need to make sure you have two powerhouse actors in the titular roles, especially when putting in the twist of casting women rather than the traditional men in the roles
BWW Reviews: TARTUFFE at Taproot Theatre
A con-man who expounds on his own piety only to eventually be discovered as the most unscrupulous hypocrite of them all.

BWW Reviews: I AM MY OWN WIFE at The Seattle Rep
A German transvestite walks into a bar in communist occupied East Berlin.
BWW Reviews: A SHADE OF GREEN from Theatre 9/12
The word riveting just doesn't seem to cover the experience of watching the World Premiere of Charles Waxberg's, "A Shade of Green" currently being offered from Theatre 9/12.
