Review: RAGTIME at Village Theatre

Review: RAGTIME at Village Theatre

by Jay Irwin · September 27, 2026

Dear Readers, I don’t think I’ve ever seen a bad production of “Ragtime” and the current production at Village Theatre is no exception. That’s not to say it’s bullet proof, I’m sure a bad production has existed somewhere out there, but as long as you understand the heart of the show a…

Review: HAMLET at Union Arts Center

Review: HAMLET at Union Arts Center

by Amelia Divine · September 22, 2026

'This above all: to thine own self be true.' There have been dozens (maybe hundreds) of Shakespearean adaptations in Seattle in recent years, and it’s become rarer to see classic versions of source material. Ironically, a tried and true Hamlet, currently playing at Union Arts Center, feels refr…

Review: A CHORUS LINE at The 5th Avenue Theatre

Review: A CHORUS LINE at The 5th Avenue Theatre

by Jay Irwin · September 19, 2026

Dear Readers, I don’t mean to make anyone feel ancient but “A Chorus Line” is 51 years old! And the 5th Avenue Theatre dusting off the old girl for their current remount may feel like a bit of nostalgia. But if their spectacular production proves anything, it’s that “A Chorus Line” is …

Review: JURASSIC PARKING LOT at Seattle Public Theater on Green Lake

by Shelley Dean · September 11, 2026

What’s better than roaring laughter and a night at the theater? How about laughing with roaring dinosaurs at the theater!

Review: BLOOD/SUCKER at 12th Ave Arts

Review: BLOOD/SUCKER at 12th Ave Arts

by Amelia Divine · August 31, 2026

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

by Jay Irwin · August 27, 2026

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: FREAK THE MIGHTY at The Seattle Rep

by Jay Irwin · August 6, 2026

Dear Readers, shows about overcoming adversity are not a new thing. It’s pretty much a staple of many storylines. But what has been coming up more and more are the shows about overcoming a physical adversity. Of course there’s one of my favorites, “Hairspray” dealing with racism and body …

Review: HELL'S KITCHEN at Paramount Theatre

Review: HELL'S KITCHEN at Paramount Theatre

by Amelia Divine · July 23, 2026

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. Hell's Kitchen, the Grammy winner's semi-autobiographical musical now at the Paramount Theatre, is a welcome reminder of just how singular her music really is. …

Review: AS YOU LIKE IT by Dacha Theatre

Review: AS YOU LIKE IT by Dacha Theatre

by Amelia Divine · July 22, 2026

William Shakespeare’s work, undoubtedly, is an acquired taste. Shakespeare’s poetry of language can turn people off (the Elizabethan language can be hard to follow).  Would you believe me if I told you that one way to make his work more approachable is by folding in layers of randomness and cha…
