Shari Barrett’s coverage is heavily centered on theater, especially local productions, interviews with directors and creative leads, and previews or announcements tied to upcoming performances. She seems most responsive to pitches that offer timely access, such as interviews, opening-night angles, behind-the-scenes context, or fresh details about a production’s interpretation, staging, or creative choices.
