Continuity: A Play in Six Takes – Mini Review – Blue Hour Theatre

Bess Wohl’s Continuity – A Play in Six Takes by Blue Hour Theatre at 12th Ave Arts. Sharply written/executed dialogue. This production thoroughly melted away my initial skepticism of the premise. Fascinating, meta-theatrical experience bringing the chaotic filmmaking process to a live stage medium. Only 2 chances left tomorrow before they “lose the light” and close for good! 🎬🎭

The Best Damn Thing – Musical – Mini Review – Dacha Theatre

The Best Damn Thing – Dacha Theatre’s random Avril Lavigne-inspired musical-ish show by Hanna Kime (but not a jukebox musical) at 12th Ave Arts starring Shannon Johnson and Moxxy Rogers. An ode to personal masterpieces and angsty 2000s theatre teen friendship that only Gen Z and Millennials would fully appreciate. Bloody tampons, lady fingering, oh my! Clever microphone work. Pure Capitol Hill chaos. Closes 4/18/26.

A Mirror – Play – Mini Review – Thalia’s Umbrella

Happy opening weekend to Thalia’s Umbrella’s production of Sam Holcroft’s A Mirror at 12th Ave Arts. Timely play within a play within a play. Unexpected twists at the beginning/end. What great art never reaches the public because of compromise, influence, mentorship/censorship, or money? Closes 3/14/26.

Preview Post – Here & Their – Musical – 12th Avenue Arts

Happy sold-out closing show tonight to the Here & Their rock queer nonbinary musical by Jasmine Joshua and Heather Ragusa. It was a very Capitol Hill-chic crowd last night at 12th Ave Arts. Don’t wait for my full review to join tonight’s waitlist. Entry is still very possible. Last night, several wait list folks got in and some were even standing room only. Great way to celebrate Pride weekend! #lgbt #lesbian #LGBTQIA #trans #gay
