Tiny Beautiful Things – Play – Seattle Repertory Theatre “Tiny Beautiful Things” w/ Seattle Repertory Theatre. Well-performed emotional monologues & impressive memorization. But this play about a columnist needed less Oprah & Lifetime with more “Sex & the City.” #basic
Take Me Out – Play – Strawberry Theatre Workshop “Take Me Out” w/ Strawberry Theatre Workshop. Nearly the entire male cast was naked at some point (very distracting). Good soliloquy style. Excellent climactic scenes of heightened emotion. But not quite sure what was the play’s message. #nudity #gay #lgbt
Office Hour – Play – ArtsWest “Office Hour” play at ArtsWest. Confused w/ what actually vs potentially occurred in the story timeline. Radical conflictingly sympathetic portrayal of mass shooting killers. Well-performed final climactic montage of violence.
Nina Simone: Four Women – Play – Seattle Repertory Theatre “Nina Simone – Four Women” w/ Seattle Repertory Theatre. Great voices (esp the deep alto). But boring preachy play w/ no plot. Probably would have enjoyed it more if I actually knew her songs! #NinaSimone
Art – Play – Tacoma Arts Live Opening night to the play “Art” w/ Tacoma Arts Live. Great actors but the attempts at humor were annoying. Good semi-climactic ending though. #NotFunny
