Xanadu – Musical – Bainbridge Performing Arts Opening weekend of the musical stage adaptation of Xanadu. Valiant effort for BPA but I prefer the production by Stages Repertory Theatre. Musicality was less developed and band needed more practice.
Smoked! – Dinner Theatre Play – Cafe Nordo Dinner theatre watching the play “Smoked!” Mysterious lone ranger makes his mark on a wild wild west town.
An Octoroon – Play – ArtsWest Playhouse and Gallery Opening weekend of the play An Octoroon. I think they were trying to be “edgy theatre” but ended up being just bizarre. They also did whiteface, blackface, & redface. Not sure what was the point of all the offensive depictions. — attending An Octoroon at ArtsWest Playhouse and Gallery.

The Wolves – Play – ACT Theatre Opening preview night of “The Wolves” play. Usually not a fan of plays where it’s all talk and no action but this wasn’t terrible. However, it didn’t seem like an accurate depiction of high school. Maybe college? — attending The Wolves at ACT Theatre.20
Kiss Me Kate – Musical – 5th Ave Theatre Opening night to Kiss Me, Kate musical featuring songs by Cole Porter. Originally saw in a community theater (Seattle Musical Theatre) and man, the professional production is so much better! — attending Kiss Me, Kate at The 5th Avenue Theatre.
