MUST SEE

Lockwood Dennis 
(Through 7/27) After you see his woodcuts, it makes perfect sense that Northwest artist Lockwood “Woody” Dennis (1937–2012) was born when he was. He seems to have absorbed the beautifully simple style of the Works Progress Administration posters in their heyday, when he was a tot: a bit abstracted and Art Deco–tinged, maybe reminiscent in their subject matter—mostly machinery and cityscapes—of socialist-realist industrialism, but nevertheless as thoroughly American as a Sousa march. Times vary. Free. Davidson Galleries, Pioneer Square, 313 Occidental Ave. S; 206.624.7684

MUST LOVE MUSIC

Steve Martin and Edie Brickell’s Bright Star
(Through 8/17) After collaborating on a bluegrass album, the comedian and the musician decided to continue to work together on a musical—and here it is, in its Seattle premiere: the stories of two North Carolina couples, one set just before the Depression, the other just after WWII, and the secret that links them.
