Dance Nation – Play – Washington Ensemble Theatre “Dance Nation” at 12th Avenue Arts w/ Washington Ensemble Theatre. Great A/V, lighting, & lead dancers. Confusing soliloquy-like moments. Expected more cutthroat backstabbing drama. Disturbing nude locker scene, considering the adult actors played preteen characters. Wasn’t sold that they were all dancers.
Cabaret – Musical – Seattle Gilbert & Sullivan Society “Cabaret the Musical” w/ Seattle Gilbert & Sullivan Society. Professional quality talent. This season’s hidden gem of Seattle’s local theatre scene. Intimate immersive feel of a cabaret captured in 12th Avenue Arts. #willkommen #Holocaust
Is God Is – Play – Washington Ensemble Theatre “Is God Is” at 12th Avenue Arts w/ Washington Ensemble Theatre. Vividly descriptive. Good fight choreography. Great acting. But couldn’t see beyond the violence & grasp the deeper meaning of this Afro Punk play. #revenge
Take Me Out – Play – Strawberry Theatre Workshop “Take Me Out” w/ Strawberry Theatre Workshop. Nearly the entire male cast was naked at some point (very distracting). Good soliloquy style. Excellent climactic scenes of heightened emotion. But not quite sure what was the play’s message. #nudity #gay #lgbt
Schoolhouse Rock Live! – Musical – ReAct Theatre Watched the musical stage adaptation of Schoolhouse Rock! Interjections, conjunctions, bills, oh my! Learning is fun. Wished they used microphones though.
