As You Like It – Musical – Seattle Repertory Theatre “As You Like It” musical w/ Seattle Rep. Cute adaptation of the Shakespeare comedy. Lightning cut the lights/sound midshow & an audience member wandered onstage! #technicalDifficulties
Tiny Beautiful Things – Play – Seattle Repertory Theatre “Tiny Beautiful Things” w/ Seattle Repertory Theatre. Well-performed emotional monologues & impressive memorization. But this play about a columnist needed less Oprah & Lifetime with more “Sex & the City.” #basic
Nina Simone: Four Women – Play – Seattle Repertory Theatre “Nina Simone – Four Women” w/ Seattle Repertory Theatre. Great voices (esp the deep alto). But boring preachy play w/ no plot. Probably would have enjoyed it more if I actually knew her songs! #NinaSimone
A Doll’s House, Part 2 – Play – Seattle Repertory Theatre “A Doll’s House, Part 2” at Seattle Repertory Theatre. While I acknowledge the longstanding unfair gender inequality in our patriarchal society, I wanted to watch an entertaining play – not listen to a preachy lecture about feminism. #Ibsen
The Woman in Black – Play – Seattle Repertory Theatre “The Woman in Black” ghost play at Seattle Repertory Theatre. Slow start had me planning to leave at intermission but it morphed into a chilling, haunting, edge-of-your-seat, scary, suspenseful, spine-tingling, gothic thriller. Great use of light, sound, & 2-person cast.
