BWW Review: SEE HOW THEY RUN at Taproot Theatre
by Kelly Rogers Flynt - January 30, 2022
In a world full of conflict, division, and uncertainty, there is a lot to worry about. As the pandemic continues, we wonder if we will ever get back to normal. It’s been a very hard couple of years and now more than ever, I’m feeling the need for a reprieve - just a moment to forget all of the outside problems and things beyond my control. I have a deep-seeded need to just laugh. Taproot Theatre’s first show of 2022 just might be the tonic we all need. SEE HOW THEY RUN reminds us that laughter really is the best medicine.
BWW Review: MALA at Seattle Public Theater
by Jay Irwin - January 29, 2022
A one-woman show is not easy. A show chronicling the loss of a loved one is even harder. To put the two together is a herculean task.

And while at times it comes off as a little overly profound, Lopez and performer Pilar O’Connell manage to engage the audience beyond a simple tale of woe.
BWW Review: MONSTERS OF THE AMERICAN CINEMA at ArtsWest
by Jay Irwin - January 29, 2022
For a play to be a truly satisfying journey we need compelling characters, conflict between those characters and some kind of resolution to the conflict where the characters grow or are richer for the experience. And while ArtsWest’s World Premiere of Christian St. Croix’s “Monsters of the American Cinema” certainly has the first two elements it lacks the third making for an unsatisfying evening.
