Kyle Lawson, retired Arizona Republic theater critic, has passed away at 75

Kyle Lawson, beloved, retired theatre critic for the Arizona Republic passed away this morning at 75.

Kerry Lengel, Arizona Republic Theatre and Arts writer, wrote a beautiful tribute to him where he said, "An actor and director before he became a reporter, Lawson was fueled by his passion for theater. ...Lawson explained in an interview why he never took joy in panning a show....'No one sets out to make a bad play, but sometimes things don’t come out the way you hoped,” he said. “So I looked for the things that worked, then the things that didn’t. ... I seldom saw a play where I didn’t see something worthwhile.'
