Gritty, on-post entertainment

There's nothing like sleeping in on a Saturday morning, then rolling out of bed and letting the day take you where it may. It's a lifestyle most single people, particularly single servicemembers, take full advantage of at Joint Base Lewis-McChord, where on-base entertainment can keep anyone busy long before the

Quality education for JBLM families

Uprooting and moving across the country can be one of the most stressful components of changing duty stations for servicemembers and their families. The transition can be especially frustrating for school-age children who are forced to start over in a new city, at a brand-new school, among people they've never

South Hill/Puyallup

It's easy to confuse South Hill with Puyallup, since they border each other. South Hill extends just south of the Puyallup valley, hence the name. Having been a prior resident, I saw first hand the growth coming to that area, with residential areas stretching further south on Meridian Avenue, the

For a short period of time during her long life, Seattle photographer Ella E. McBride was revered internationally, but after her death in 1965, at the age of 102, much of her work was lost, and today she is little known. Perhaps this Tacoma Art Museum exhibition will help restore

Genre-fluid

Somewhere along the way, humanity saddled itself with stifling, abundantly inconvenient, and calamitously damaging notions of gender, sexual orientation, and the respective roles of women and men in society. For a life so filled to the brim with nuance, it seems a bunch of people got together and drafted a

Return to the Forbidden Planet

Return to the Forbidden Planet is a whirling dervish of energy, throwing so many ideas and inventive set pieces at the wall to see what sticks, and its wild, giddy enthusiasm is positively infectious. Centerstage Theatre has produced a musical that's deceptively light as a feather, mashing together classic sci-fi tropes,

Journey into the unknown

When Ludwig van Beethoven died in March of 1827, possibly from cirrhosis of the liver, he'd been in poor health for years. Despite that, he managed to finish several string quartets and his now-beloved Ninth. The finale of that symphony, an allegro familiar to anyone who ever watched Die Hard,

The careers of John, Paul, George and Ringo, post-Beatles, is a nearly ideal case study in the separate personalities that make up a band, and the effects of isolating them in solo projects. Harrison was free to explore his spiritual side, and released the triple-album masterpiece that he apparently had
