Covenant, ArtsWest, 2/6/25-3/2/25
When a struggling guitarist returns to his small Georgia town a blues star, rumors begin swirling that he may have made a deal with the devil to attain his musical genius. Before long, however, it becomes clear he's not the only one with a secret. A mythic and suspenseful new play that delivers one devilish twist after another, York Walker's Covenant explores the power of belief and the thin line between rumor and truth.

The Last Five Years, ACT Theatre and 5th
Avenue Theatre, 2/8/25-3/16/25 (at ACT)
This modern musical takes a devastatingly honest look at one couple’s journey falling in and out of love. Through clever storytelling and sharp lyrics, writer Jason Robert Brown’s cult favorite gives us a raw and intimate window into two souls and two perspectives of one relationship. Jamie’s songs start at the beginning of the relationship and Cathy’s songs start from the end moving back to the beginning with only one song in the middle overlapping.

Crave, Intiman Theatre, 2/11/25-3/2/25 (at
Erickson Theatre)
Love, loss, sex and desire play across the stage in this poetic and deeply personal play from legendary playwright Sarah Kane. Two decades ago, Washington Ensemble Theatre (WET) chose to perform this play as one of their early productions. It was said to be a notable play. Intiman is bringing together many of the original WET artists for a career retrospective and celebration, including Roger Bennington, Marc Kennison (Waxie Moon), and Marya Sea Kaminski. Intiman Artistic Director Jennifer Zeyl, will once again design the set. Four fragmented and fractured characters strive to find peace and connection in a lonely world. This is a unique opportunity to see a production with this unique local history.
