BWW Reviews: HOW TO WRITE A NEW BOOK FOR THE BIBLE at the Seattle Rep
by Jay Irwin (Jan. 26 11:56 AM) - There are certain authors whose shows I never miss if possible. Lynn Ahrens and Stephen Flaherty, Terrence McNally, and Howard Ashman to name just a few. These are people whose work I rank among my favorites for the richness and compassion in their writing. Well, after yet another stunning work such as “How to Write a New Book for the Bible”, currently playing at the Seattle Rep, I think I have another new favorite in Bill Cain.

BWW Reviews: CRADLE AND ALL at Theater Schmeater
by Jay Irwin (Jan. 22 1:55 PM) - Which is better, the idea of having children or actually having them? That’s the question posed by the current show from Theater Schmeater, “Cradle and All” by Daniel Goldfarb. And while I felt the play itself lacked a solid ending, the show manages to be a fun and funny look into the joys and hardships of parenting and an excellent character study of two disparate couples.
