LUZIA by Cirque du Soleil – King County’s Marymoor Park Watched LUZIA by Cirque du Soleil. Incredible talent mixed in with cheap immature comic relief. Also, the depiction of Mexican culture was like eating Mexican food in Seattle. Okay show but not worth the drive to Siberia (Redmond).
An American In Paris – Paramount Theatre Watched the stage adaptation of the Gershwin musical An American In Paris on Broadway. Every movement (even in the strictly acting portions with no music) was nuanced with ballet-like elegance. Very charming classic feel.
Frozen – ArtsWest Playhouse and Gallery Watched the play “Frozen” (definitely not Disney). Offered a chilling glimpse into the mind of a pedophile serial killer, a vengeful grieving mother, and a flawed forensic psychologist. Where do you draw the line between innate evil and criminal insanity?
First Date The Musical – Twelfth Night Productions Attended the last performance of First Date The Musical. Definitely reeked of community theater quality but it’s still one of my favorite musicals so we’ll give this production a pass. Houston’s Theatre Under The Stars is always a tough act to follow.
Hetty Kate and Casey MacGill – JazzVox Concert Series Attended the intimate listening room concert of the incredibly taleted Hetty Kate and Casey MacGill. Polish food, wine, and great company with Luke in the Spitzs’ living room. Thanks for the invite Nich
