Watched the stage version of Sister Act. Loved the groovy disco vibe, witty quips, and hilarious songs. Well-written and strong performance overall. But the individual actors by themselves were not showstopping. Also, I’m pretty sure Seattle’s ethnic shortage forced the production’s casting to be more “colorblind.”
Took the ferry to see the musical [title of show]. Set and props were minimal, but this allowed the audience to fully appreciate the actors’ talent and the novel/brilliant script. Probably the funniest musical I’ve seen.
Watched the sold out Green Day musical American Idiot. Totally fitting for Capitol Hill. Snowpocalypse won’t keep me away from the theater tonight!
Watched the nearly sold-out play Vietgone. Cleverly written and brilliantly executed. Even the integrated rap (not my favorite genre) segments weren’t half bad. Standing ovation from me!
Last minute musical! Watched Spring Awakening. Not too shabby for a local, upstarting theater company.
