click to playWe saw The Cure at Troy (SeattleRep) - which features a set made to look like a barren island. The Rep made a timelapse video showing the construction.
Quoted: See the Seattle Rep scene shop build a 16-foot high mountain in an amazing time lapse. See the mountain onstage, designed by Blythe Quinlan, in The Cure at T...

We went to the opening night of Teatro Zinzanni's re-opening in their original location (across Mercer street from the Opera House).
The show is even better than I remember. One of my favorites is Rachel DeShon - her character, Zinga, is bubbly and exuberant - and then she knocks you out with her operatic singing (how could that powerful voice come from such a small frame?).
Four Seattle city council members (including my Fave, Peter Steinbrueck) were present at opening night; I guess if you expedite some building permits you can get a VIP ticket to the show! ;-)
Quoted: Teatro ZinZanni vet Rachel DeShon is "Zinga" in the new show "Hearts on Fire."

Really good play at the Rep. Deb and I went last week. Only two actors; both giving very powerful performances.
Ends March 4th.
Quoted: Lewis is a sleepless mathematics professor, restless during a night of personal and professional crisis. He has inadvertently conjured his ancestors. As four generations prod him with their disquieting stories of slavery, Black Power, and academia, he begins to understand what it means to be black, both then and now.

Good show tonight. Only 4 actors - the story of a priest and suspicions that he has had inappropriate contact with boys at the church school. Well worth seeing. The power struggle between the nun and the priest very instense.
Quoted: This intense and personal power struggle between Sister Aloysius and Father Flynn ultimately calls into question both faith and justice in the shadows of this cloistered institution.

My latest blog post... It's kinda making wish I was going to be in Seattle just a little longer!

Just catching up on the news that Maurice Clemmons was shot on Dec 1st. Was Maurice setting a trap to kill the first responder to a reported stolen vehicle. That seems plausible, but why then did he approach the police car with his gun in his pants, instead of drawn and ready to fire?
I can't imagine the stress placed on Officer Benjamin Kelly in making the identification and decision to shoot Clemmons in just a matter of seconds.
