Taproot Theatre’s Wonderful Production of “Tuesdays with Morrie” has no Critics…
- The Seattle PI closed it’s doors and the Seattle Times along with other local papers and publications have cut their Arts budgets…so a week before opening Tuesdays With Morrie, Taproot Theatre received notice that there wouldn’t be a theatre critic attending their show.
My husband and I love Taproot Theatre. We have season tickets…this is our 5th or 6th season to enjoy their productions. We pay the going rate for our tickets and we think they are well worth their price.
Their current production Tuesdays With Morrie written by Jeffrey Hatcher and Mitch Albom, directed by Karen Lund, starring Aaron Lamb and Nolan Palmer is one of their best! It is a touching story based on the best selling book with the same name written by Mitch Albom.
The Play is about a young man, Mitch, and his mentor…his favorite professor, Morrie, from his University days. The 2 re-connect as Morrie is very sick and dying. It is tender and tearful to watch as Morrie and Mitch rekindle and become very close friends. Morrie loves Mitch as a son…He believes in him and has an uncanny ability to touch Mitch and help him to re think the direction of his life…until the very end. We all long for someone like that in our lives…this play may even remind us of someone near and dear.
In the end the audience was full of sniffles and tears. The play was very well acted and directed and was a pleasure to experience.
Tuesdays With Morrie will be playing at Taproot Theatre until April 25th..

Tuesdays with Morrie is a “must read” for everyone. The play sounds great!
