Feinstein's/54 Below continues their #54BelowAtHome series tonight with 'I Am Woman: A Concert for Female Empowerment.'

Feinstein's/54 Below has added shows to #54BelowatHome, a series of streamed performances to provide theater fans everywhere with artistic content from their favorite artists.

Emerson Steele and Kelly Lamor Wilson put together a dynamite show to celebrate female empowerment. Whether it was Charlotte Maltby's slightly quirky, 'Grace Kelly' or Laura Bell Bundy's differently quirky, 'Digital Disease' or Annie Golden's emphatic, warrior anthem, 'White Picket Fence,' each song and performance showcased unique talent.

This past Sunday, February 23rd Feinstein's/54 Below celebrated women with I AM WOMAN: A Concert For Female Empowerment. I Am Woman was an evening of story and song that aimed to destroy the a?oetabooa?? surrounding the discussion of women's issues. The night boasted some of Broadway's favorite females of Broadway as they came together to share their feelings not just as women, but as human beings. From sexuality to spirituality, from health to harassment, no subject was off-limits.

Next week, FEINSTEIN'S/54 BELOW, Broadway's Supper Club & Private Event Destination, presents some of the brightest stars from Broadway, cabaret, jazz, and beyond.

FEINSTEIN'S/54 BELOW, Broadway's Supper Club, will present I Am Woman: A Concert For Female Empowerment on February 23rd, at 9:30pm.

Context is Key. Without context, your message can be completely lost. Such has happened with Washington Ensemble Theatre and their season opener, Aleshea Harris' a?oeIs God Isa??. If you look up information on the show or even read the promotional material put out by the theater, the show a?oeInspired by Spaghetti Westerns and Afro-punk, this electrifying play follows twin sisters who go on a killing spree to exact revenge on their creatora?? bringing up notions of allegory and some comedic undertones. In fact, from what I could find about the original production, that's where they aimed. But here they've missed the mark on the context and are left with a story of violence and revenge leaving me, after the show, to ask a?oewhya??.

Washington Ensemble Theatre will begin its 2019/20 Season with the West Coast premiere of Is God Is, the Spaghetti Western-inspired play by Aleshea Harris that centers on the contemporary myths and stories of black women, considers the futility and desperation that comes from cyclical violence, and asks why stories of revenge feel so good and so bad.

The Horse in Motion returns with another unique theatrical experience, opening May 17 in an art gallery in Pioneer Square.

It did not surprise me in the least to discover that Horse in Motion's immersive “Hamlet” is completely sold out for the remainder of its run. On the evening of my attendance, the waitlist was twenty people deep. If you get lucky enough to see the production, whether from showing up at 6:30PM on the nose to put yourself on the waitlist or having bought your tickets in advance, you will not be disappointed. Complemented by some powerhouse performances, Horse in Motion's unorthodox locale--the century old Stimson-Green Mansion--makes seeing this production a wholly unique experience. Horse in Motion's transportive, intimate “Hamlet” makes those three hours go by all too quickly.

The Horse in Motion announces their upcoming production, an immersive multi-room staging of Hamlet in the historic Stimson-Green Mansion.

MOTHERWORKS is sure to be the quintessential Mother's Day event with headliners from stage and screen, and ChrisCakes catering each show.

To celebrate the publication of the play Black Like Us, BrownBox Theatre joins forces with Sound Theatre Company to present an 'encore' staged reading of the Gregory Award Winning Play at the Langston Hughes Performing Arts Institute.  Black Like Us is a funny, poignant, and deeply relevant story about the bonds of family, the struggles of identity, and the far-reaching effects of one woman's decision. The play is set in Seattle's Central District neighborhood, not far from the location of the Langston Hughes Performing Arts Institute, and spans decades of change that have impacted that community. 

Do you have an allergy or aversion to laughter? If so, my condolences and this show might not be for you. But if not then you should get yourself down to the Center House Theatre to catch Sound Theatre Company's current production of "One Man, Two Guvnors". Get ready for two and a half hours gut busting laughter and some of the best psychical comedy around.

You know that feedback you hear? "Sorry, you're not right for this role … you're not young enough, old enough, tall enough, short enough, MALE enough?!" So, what's a girl to do? Tongue in cheek, with humor and heart, with songs, stories, dances, and goofy antics, 2014 Theatre World Award winner, Emerson Steele, turns the norms upside down and, tonight, plays the roles she has always wanted to play and some she hopes to play in the future!
