Eureka Day – Play – Mini Review – Seattle Rep

Jonathan Spector’s brilliant Eureka Day play at Seattle Rep. Hilariously cringey, deliciously uncomfortable mirror held up to liberal idealism, passive-aggressive virtue signaling, & self-involved navel gazing. This rage-baiting satire feels right at home in woke Seattle. No wonder the right thinks we're absurd! Set in Sara C. Walsh’s beautiful Golden Gate scenic design.

5 Lesbians Eating a Quiche – Mini Review – Pony World Theatre – 12th Ave Arts

Final week to catch Andrew Hobgood & Evan Linder's 5 Lesbians Eating a Quiche from Pony World Theatre at 12th Ave Arts! Campy & absurd like an SNL sketch w/ 1950s Stepford satire. Lisa Viertel delivers a formidable, matriarchal "widow" with a stick up her hoo-Ha. Watch Megan Huynh tear up that "pie!" 🥧"No men, no meat, no manners!" ... and unalive that beeyotch Marjorie! Sold out run, but there's a promising waitlist.... Click to read more
