Review: BLOOD/SUCKER at 12th Ave Arts
In Washington Ensemble Theatre’s Blood/Sucker, there’s something lurking in the shadows of the public high school, something that wants to suck the life out of all who roam the halls, teachers and students alike. Is it gun violence? Internet trolls? Bullying? Racism? Transphobia? Food insecurity…
Review: HARRY POTTER AND THE CURSED CHILD at Paramount Theatre
Dear Readers, when discussing the play “Harry Potter and the Cursed Child”, currently playing at the Paramount Theatre, we need to consider things in two time frames, B.C. and A.C., Before Covid and After Covid. B.C. the show was only in select places such as New York, London, and San Francisco…
Review: FREAK THE MIGHTY at The Seattle Rep

Review: HELL'S KITCHEN at Paramount Theatre
Alicia Keys can write the hell out of a song. Her catalog has been the soundtrack to heartbreaks and first loves for more than two decades.

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

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…
