Review: JOSEPH AND THE AMAZING TECHNICOLOR DREAMCOAT at Taproot Theatre
When I think of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, I don't think of camp. It's content and presentation are really earnest. But the Taproot Theatre’s latest production leans into ‘camp’ in every sense of the word. Set in a children’s summer camp talent show…
Review: XIAN CONDUCTS BEETHOVEN 9 at Benaroya Hall
Xian’s performance was a joyful representation of Schiller’s text, ending the rousing evening with an affirmation of much-needed hope for us all. The performance was transcendent in every way.…
Review: FRIDA...A SELF-PORTRAIT at Union Arts Center
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
There’s a reason Blue Man Group has been beloved for nearly 40 years: their show is pure fun. Packed with electrifying percussion performances, inventive visual storytelling, and laugh-out-loud-worthy comedy, the group's North American tour continues to delight audiences, and their stop at The Par…
Review: WE AIN’T EVER GONNA BREAK UP: THE HYMON AND PARFUNKEL MUSICAL at Village Theatre
Dear Readers, the bio-musical is a tricky thing. Some love them, some hate them. For me, it all depends on if you have an affinity for the music of the subjects, plus it needs a strong book. And then there’s the current show from Village Theatre, “We Ain’t Ever Gonna Break Up: The Hymon and Pa…
Review: THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA at Paramount Theatre
It’s almost unbelievable for me to admit that this was my first time seeing The Phantom of the Opera. Of course, I knew the iconic songs and had seen countless clips over the years, but experiencing the production live on stage for the first time was entirely different, haunting, and spine-chillin…
Review: CARMEN at McCaw Hall
The production, with its flamboyantly portrayed characters and colorful background, fulfilled the most crowd-pleasing elements of the work…
Review: APPROPRIATE at The Seattle Rep
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
Few shows carry the legacy and emotional weight of Les Misérables. With sweeping, unforgettable melodies and a story that has resonated across generations, the 2026 National Tour delivers a theatrical experience that leaves audiences deeply impacted. The Paramount Theatre is fortunate to host one o…
Review: GREASE at Village Theatre
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.…
