Review: COMPANY at The Paramount Theatre
I’m about to commit a musical theater geek sin, Dear Readers, so get the torches and pitchforks ready.
Review: SISTER ACT at Taproot Theatre
Dear Readers, the musical version of the hit 1992, Whoopi Goldberg comedy “Sister Act” has never been one of my favorites.
Review: CLUE at The 5th Avenue Theatre
Dear Readers, chances are you played that classic board game “Clue” as a kid.
Review: GIRL FROM THE NORTH COUNTRY at The Paramount
Dear Readers, I will admit that “Girl From the North Country”, currently playing at The Paramount, is a tough one to get into.
Review: 53% OF at Center Theatre At Seattle Center
Are you a good person? Does anyone truly know if they are? Countless factors go into deciding such a weighted answer, for a lot of people, politics plays a large role.
Review: SPRING AWAKENING at The 5th Avenue Theatre
Dear Readers, I should start by saying that “Spring Awakening”, the musical from Duncan Sheik and Steven Sater based on the 1891 play by Frank Wedekind, has never been one of my favorites.
Review: DOLLY! at The Can Can
Dear Readers, as you know, I’ve often extolled the fabulousness of the shows at The Can Can.
Review: VENUS & THE VIXENS: GAMES OF LOVE at Emerald City Trapeze Arts
We’ve all probably heard the story of Cupid and Psyche, a forbidden love that faces a greater-than-average amount of challenges, but in this day and age, is it really more than average? The new musical extravaganza, Venus & the Vixens: Games of Love, rockingly conceived, written, and directed by M
Review: JINKX MONSOON & MAJOR SCALES TOGETHER AGAIN, AGAIN! at The Seattle Rep
I was excited for this one.
Review: SHERLOCK HOLMES AND THE PRECARIOUS POSITION at Taproot Theatre
First off, Dear Readers, “Sherlock Holmes and the Precarious Position” currently playing at Taproot Theatre, is not a Holmes story from Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.
Review: ONCE ON THIS ISLAND at Village Theatre
Dear Readers, we’re about to enter the realm of one of my favorite shows, “Once on This Island”, currently playing at Village Theatre.
Review: UNRIVALED at Seattle Public Theater
There are countless modern retellings of historical events out there, I could name twenty right now, but Unrivaled does it differently, in a fresh way that deserves to be talked about.
Review: SEATTLE OPERA 60TH ANNIVERSARY CONCERT & GALA at McCaw Hall
an enchanted evening that will be remembered for many decades as an occasion that was memorable in every way
Review: ROMEO AND JULIET at Center Theatre At Seattle Center
The biggest challenge of pulling off a show such as Romeo and Juliet is finding new ways to keep the audience interested when we all know what happens.
Review: THE BARBER OF SEVILLE at Mccaw Hall
Without a doubt the highlight of, and a perfect ending to, the company’s season
Review: THE LION TELLS HIS TALE at Broadway Performance Hall
History is often rewritten in a way that is easier to digest, leading to hundreds of years of misinformation and erasure of the struggles of marginalized and persecuted groups.
Review: THE LEHMAN TRILOGY at ACT Theatre
At first glance, Dear Readers, Stefano Massini’s “The Lehman Trilogy”, as adapted by Ben Power and currently playing at ACT, may seem like a daunting task.
Review: DISNEY'S ALADDIN at The Paramount Theatre
If there’s one thing, Dear Readers, that Disney is good at, it’s spectacle.
Review: FAT HAM at Seattle Rep
So, did the Rep’s “Fat Ham” crush my soul? Absolutely not and I must entreat anyone reading this, DO NOT MISS THIS SHOW!!!
Review: THE SEASONS' CANON at Pacific Northwest Ballet
“The Seasons’ Canon” offers a safe haven for deeply feeling arts lovers to take a safe seat for a couple of hours and experience our powerful and merciful natural world through the medium of dance.
Review: SCRAMBLING THE GOOSE at Washington Ensemble Theatre
When you go to the theater, Dear Readers, you sit in silence and enjoy the show.
Review: BEETLEJUICE at The Paramount Theatre
Dear Readers, warning, I’m about to be a bit of a snob here.
Review: HOW TO WRITE A NEW BOOK FOR THE BIBLE at Taproot Theatre
