Vanya & Sonia & Masha & Spike – Play – Tacoma Arts Live

Drove to Siberia to watch the Tony Awards-winning, Anton Chekhov-inspired play Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike. Voodoo prophetess and douchey hot actor were a hoot. I could do without the bizzare climatic anti-millennial monologue though.

The Conduct of Life – Play – Seattle University

Watched the Obie Awards-winning play — Watched the Obie Awards-winning play “The Conduct of Life.” Dialogue was bizzare & I’m sure I missed the symbolism. An usher was available to escort out attendees who couldn’t handle the graphic sexual/verbal/physical abuse scenes!

Casa Valentina – Play – Lesser-known Players

Opening night to the Seattle premier of Harvey Fierstein's play — Opening night to the Seattle premier of Harvey Fierstein’s play “Casa Valentina.” Intriging piece about a B&B for cross-dressers. Great monologues. Abrupt ending but well-written overall.

Baskerville: A Sherlock Holmes Mystery – Play – Taproot Theatre

Watched the terribly corny play — Watched the terribly corny play “Baskerville: A Sherlock Holmes Mystery.” Five actors portrayed 35 characters. Liked how one of the main characters was Texan. Represent!

Oslo – Play – ACT Theatre

Previewed the Tony Award-winning play Oslo. Political/historical references to the Palestinian-Israeli crisis frequently went over my head. But great dialogue & frequent scene changes engaged my attention throughout this 3 hr (2 intermission) show.
