Afternoon matinee of Legally Blonde the Musical in concert. Casting black actresses as Elle Woods and Paulette Bonafonté added a neat twist to this fun musical.
Watched Sara Barielles’s Waitress the Musical, complete with 2 mini pies to eat during the descriptive, mouth-watering show. Wasn’t sure where they were going with their stance on infidelity but found the ending acceptable.
Sold out show of the rock opera musical The Who’s Tommy. In true Seattle fashion, their casting was so gratuitously gender/color blind that 5 actors portrayed Tommy instead of 3. So confusing! Good production though.
Last performance of Legally Blonde the Musical. Mics should have more volume. Slower tempo than other productions I’ve seen. Supporting cast was strong (more than main characters). Huge unrealized potential here!
Second time watching The Phantom of the Opera. Didn’t connect the dark “angel of music” to Lucifer (thanks Samantha). Appalling anti-feminism. Cool special effects (esp fire).
