Sarah Nicks

I’ve met Sarah Nicks on occasion as she grills up summertime shish-kabobs outside the front of Stadium Thriftway. Hot damn, those things are good. And with a beautiful Sarah Nicks at your service, you simply can’t pass up the good eats.   Nick’s been with Stadium Thriftway for more than three years,

TROUBLE WITH DEROSA: Sarah Nicks

Squeak and Squawk

Squeaking. Squawking. Rocking. And rolling.  Throw in some indie posturing, a dollop of cello playing, a healthy dose of experimenting, a smidge of history making and a heaping helping of tight pants and ironic haircuts — and you’ve got the makings of something revolutionary in Tacoma.    What you’ve got is the Squeak

Dia de los Muertos

Death is the ultimate mind bender. If you’ve ever lost someone close to you, then you know what I mean. You’re here; they’re gone, and you must adapt. Adapting can be a disorienting process. Case in point: Something happens that only your friend would appreciate so you pick up the

Minimalist abstract

Daniel Clayman’s minimalist abstract sculptures have been compared to the works of Martin Puryear and Tony Cragg. To me his work looks a lot like a sculpture by Donald Judd, especially in its clarity and what I can only call its “is-ness,” a kind of undeniable presence. Plus it has

Sun is a bit cloudy

I wanted so much for this show to blow me away. I needed a terrific show. My daughter was having the blues and wanted a great show from Tacoma Musical Playhouse. We saw a good show. Not bad, not great. Just good. It should have been better since it had

Jumping on the band wagon

ANNOUNCER: There is nothing that stands out about Maresol on Bridgeport Way in Lakewood other than next door sits a teriyaki joint with the brightest yellow awning in the county — you can’t miss that. Otherwise, Maresol and the Filipino food that exists inside is relatively incognito except for those

American fateful fantasy

We’ve all seen them — standing on some street corner, holding signs and shouting apocalyptic warnings like “the end of the world is near.” Until a few months ago I passed them off as crazies. It’s hard not to assume a religion-wrapped person donning a handmade sandwich board and proclaiming the

Curbing youth violence

Despite a few hitches, Tacoma efforts to curb youth violence are off to a start.

The Show Show

“Rainy, 50 degree weather welcomes you home to Seattle, or if you’re lucky enough, this is just a layover before Hawaii,” the flight attendant smirked as the plane prepared to touch down at SeaTac airport Monday. Returning from a weekend of 95 degree weather in Arizona was difficult. Hoping for

For instance, artist Ben Isitt and the Freighthouse Square have teamed up to resurrect the Black Lake Medical Asylum, which opens Friday.
