“Summer – The Donna Summer Musical” w/ Seattle Theatre Group. Amazing divas. Great light show. Exquisite minimalist modern set design. But the transitions & storyline pace were awkward & tepid. #disco
“Miracle on 34th Street” #musical adaptation w/ Seattle Musical Theatre. Lead actors were good but the overhead stage microphones allowed the live band/orchestra to overpower them. #Xmas #Christmas #Santa
“Mrs. Doubtfire” at The 5th Avenue Theatre before it goes to Broadway in spring 2020. Hilarious stage musical adaptation of the movie. Lead actor was crazy talented.
Charles Dickens “A Christmas Carol” play at SecondStory Repertory. Strong primary actors especially Scrooge. Pleasantly surprised w/ the live music & singing. But not a fan of the cliche sentimentality & cuteness common w/ many stage renditions of this classic. #xmas #humbug
Jane Austen’s “Sense & Sensibility” at Shoreline Community College. Enjoyed this play more than I thought I would. Perhaps it was the gossipy busybody characters. But scene transitions were awkward & the puppetry should be omitted.
