A Very Die Hard Christmas – Musical – Seattle Public Theatre Yippee ki yay! Attended the sold-out stage musical adaptation of “Die Hard,” “A Very Die Hard Christmas,” at Seattle Public Theater. Probably would have enjoyed it more if I watched the original movie. Cheesy & corny! #johnmcclane [/caption]
My Antonia – Play – Book-It Repertory Theatre Watched the stage play adaptation of Willa Cather’s “My Antonia” at Book-It Repertory Theatre. Lots of cast doubling. Entertaining to hear different immigrant & Americana accents but wonder if they were pronounced correctly.
Jingle All the Way – Concert – Seattle Men’s Chorus Attended the Seattle Men’s Chorus “Jingle All the Way” christmas concert w/ Andres & Alex at Benaroya Hall. Loved that they added a tap dance routine. Missing singing w/ these guys. Sound tech, turn up the volume!
Freaky Friday – Musical – Village Theatre Village Theatre’s last performance of Disney’s “Freaky Friday” stage musical adaptation. Typical generic feel of a made-for-tv movie on the Disney Channel. Good songs and harmony though.
The Lion King – Musical – Paramount Theatre Disney’s “The Lion King” musical sold out run at Paramount Theatre. Costumes, set, & music were AMAZING but show didn’t live up to the hype. Puppetry isn’t a great stage medium & animals aren’t good stage characters. Also too kid-friendly.
