Frozen – Musical – Paramount Theatre Disney’s “Frozen – The Musical” at Paramount Theatre w/ Seattle Theatre Group. High-quality special effects & clever puppetry. #LetItGo
Fiddler on the Roof – Musical – Paramount “Fiddler on the Roof” at Paramount Theatre w/ Andres & Eyal. Slow, unexciting, & educational. But great traditional jewish choreography. Loved the yiddish expressions. #tradition
Summer | The Donna Summer Musical – Paramount Theatre “Summer – The Donna Summer Musical” w/ Seattle Theatre Group. Amazing divas. Great light show. Exquisite minimalist modern set design. But the transitions & storyline pace were awkward & tepid. #disco
Miss Saigon – Musical – Paramount Theatre “Miss Saigon” musical tour w/ Seattle Theatre Group. Tragic story. HUGE cast. Unintelligible Act 1 but nice marine eye candy. Better Act 2 esp w/ the spectacular “Fall of Saigon” helicopter scene. #Vietnam
Charlie & the Chocolate Factory – Musical – Paramount Theatre “Golden Ticket” to Roald Dahl’s “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory” live musical adaptation w/ Seattle Theatre Group. Clever Oompa Loompa “stage magic.” Diverse sets, scenes, costumes, caricatures, & songs. Great Russian father-daughter duo. But new songs were unmemorable and the theater was surprisingly empty! #Chocolate #Candy
