BWW Review: THE THIN PLACE at ACT
by Jay Irwin - March 25, 2022
Do you like a good ghost story, Dear Readers? I do. I love it when a creepy tale can make my flesh crawl and jump out of my seat. But there are so few creepy tales on stage. Well, enter Lucas Hnath’s “The Thin Place” currently performing at ACT. Not only is this a truly terrifying tale but it’s from one of the hottest new playwrights around today, author of “Dana H” and “A Dolls House, Part 2”. Add into that a stellar cast and you have a frightfully fun evening on your hands.

BWW Review: PIPELINE at Seattle Public Theater
by Jay Irwin - March 22, 2022
Dear Readers, if you’re familiar with Dominique Morisseau’s play, “Pipeline”, currently playing at Seattle Public Theater, you know what a striking play it is. Filled with resonant themes and high intensity moments, the show can knock you off your feet. But more than anything, it’s about real people and real situations in our all too real, and all too troubled world. So, it needs to feel real. And while most in the SPT production were up to that task, there were some that I didn’t feel the commitment to being real which took me out of the piece.

BWW Review: THIS GIRL LAUGHS, THIS GIRL CRIES, THIS GIRL DOES NOTHING at ArtsWest
by Jay Irwin - March 21, 2022
Dear Readers, I’ve often commented on the basics of any good show, storytelling. Without good storytelling, the ability to spin an engaging tale, then what’s the point of putting up a show? ArtsWest’s current season purports itself to be all about, myths and legends and telling a good story. Well, I’m happy to assert that with their current show, “This Girl Laughs, This Girl Cries, This Girl Does Nothing” by Finegan Kruckemeyer, they have honored that claim as this fable is overflowing with some first class, simple, and effective storytelling. So, let’s gather around the campfire and listen to the tale.

BWW Review: TEENAGE DICK at The Seattle Rep
by Jay Irwin - March 10, 2022
The provocative title, “Teenage Dick”, for the current show at the Seattle Rep is giving some people pause while others just find it hilarious. Yes, I’m sure it’s intentionally provocative to get attention and yes, it’s funny. But it’s just the nickname for the main character, Richard, and he is a teenager, so let’s get the giggles out of our system now. I’ll wait. All good now? OK, Dear Readers, now I can tell you all about this incredible show and how I was left super excited for “Teenage Dick”. Dammit! I guess it wasn’t all out yet.
