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
You may need to bring your own tissues for this one.
Review: THE MOORS at Seattle Public Theater
We’ve had a recent spate of the murderous, dark comedies, Dear Reader.
Review: THE BED TRICK at the Center Theatre At Seattle Center
Best friends, betrayals, love, and lust - Keiko Green’s new work, The Bed Trick, has it all.
Review: PLAY/WRITE at Planet M Records
What did our critic think of PLAY/WRITE at Planet M Records? There is much to unpack here in the way of unique sounds, colors and vibrations
Review: STEW at ACT Theatre
I like to think, Dear Reader, that I don’t need to have the meaning/plot/message of a show spoon fed to me.
Review: THE FANTASTICKS at Village Theatre
Pop quiz, Dear Readers.
Review: NOIR at The Can Can
Dear Readers, I cannot imagine a time when anyone, let alone me, would have a bad time at The Can Can.
Review: ANYONE CAN WHISTLE at Theatre Off Jackson
It takes a special group of actors and a stellar production crew to turn a show infamously known as one of Stephen Sondheim's biggest “flops” into a hit.
Review: SOMETHING'S AFOOT at The 5th Avenue Theatre
Curating a season is not an easy thing, especially for a large, professional theater.
Review: SANCTUARY CITY at The Seattle Rep
Dear Readers, I want to share with you one of the issues I come up against while writing these reviews.
Review: X: THE LIFE AND TIMES OF MALCOLM X at McCaw Hall
Without doubt a definitive event for Seattle Opera, and worth experiencing in all of its many extraordinary aspects.
Review: MEMOIRS OF A FORGOTTEN MAN at 12th Avenue Arts
How far back can you remember? When you were 10? 5? Do you remember the day you were born? Probably not.
