Review: FRIDA...A SELF-PORTRAIT at Union Arts Center

Review: FRIDA...A SELF-PORTRAIT at Union Arts Center

by Amelia Divine · June 13, 2026

One-person productions are typically autobiographical: the performer teaches the audience about themself, as themself. But this seemingly “direct” approach is often not actually revealing, where an artist performs a ritualized series of autobiographical anecdotes that fit into the form’s genre…

Review: BLUE MAN GROUP at The Paramount Theatre

Review: BLUE MAN GROUP at The Paramount Theatre

Review: THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA at Paramount Theatre

Review: THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA at Paramount Theatre

by Shelley Dean · May 18, 2026

Review: APPROPRIATE at The Seattle Rep

Review: APPROPRIATE at The Seattle Rep

by Jay Irwin · April 16, 2026

Dear Readers, why do we like shows about dysfunctional families? I posit that it’s one of two reasons. Either we are reveling in knowing that your family isn’t that bad or watching as more of a catharsis of seeing a family like yours get through their dysfunction. Playwright Branden Jacobs-Je…

Review: LES MISÉRABLES at The Paramount Theatre

Review: GREASE at Village Theatre

Review: GREASE at Village Theatre

by Jay Irwin · March 28, 2026

Dear Readers, “Grease” may be the word at Village Theatre right now, but don’t expect to hear that song from the movie, as the movie does stray from the original stage show from Jim Jacobs and Warren Casey. But we’ll get into that in a bit.…

Review: MARY JANE at The Seattle Rep

Review: MARY JANE at The Seattle Rep

by Jay Irwin · March 26, 2026

Dear Readers, we’ve all had to, or will have to, deal with an ailing loved one. But with luck that span where we devote extra time and care or even time in the hospital will be temporary and brief. A broken bone or a minor surgery, if the gods are kind. But what happens when that medical malady be…
