A searingly personal, absurdly funny new play, detangling the impact of sexual assault on one survivor and the people in their community.

Follow the trials and triumphs of a disembodied pair of legs, woodland thespians, a beleaguered stage manager, the ideal 1950s couple, Vladimir Lenin’s wife, Jay Gatsby, and more, as they detangle and process the impact of sexual assault on one survivor and the people in their community. Can they listen to each other? Can they heal?

A Lonely Realization teases out the comic absurdity of our fear and inhibitions around discussing sexual assault and invites the audience as well as the characters into a space where individuals and institutions are taught to listen, hear, and possibly even understand.

Beloved Seattle playwright Katie Forgette returns to ACT with this world premiere first featured at ACT’s inaugural New Works Northwest Festival. This delightful backstage comedy unfolds on the opening night of the Teacup Theatre’s production of Death of a Salesman where two actors, returning after years away, find themselves grappling with more than just their roles. The stage becomes a platform for dramatic antics and witty repartee as the characters confront uncomfortable truths about identity, representation, and the stories theatres choose to tell — blurring the lines between reality and mania in this hilarious yet thought-provoking exploration of the human experience.

Kenneth has lived his entire life in the same small town. Every day he works at the bookstore, then shares happy hour Mai Tais with his best friend. And so what if his best friend is imaginary? Every day is the same, just the way Kenneth likes it — until he is laid off and his world is turned upside down. Thrown out of his comfort zone, Kenneth must find the courage to face his biggest fear: change. This intimate and offbeat new comedy by Eboni Booth tells a surprising story about one man’s leap of faith and the friends he makes along the way.

Theatre Off Jackson has been transformed into the Underworld itself for the union of Persephone and Hades — and you are invited. The Pomegranate Tree extends this honor to you mortals, who are usually forbidden in such divine spaces — but the myths you’ve read about these immortal beings have been mere whispers of the truth you’ll encounter. These gods, in all their conflict and longing, are more like you than you may think — and they’re in desperate need of your wisdom. Can you help them navigate love, death, and perhaps the hardest challenge of all, family?

This is a devised theatre piece disguised as a party, which asks you to dress up, enjoy libations, dance, and help craft the narrative anew each night. Our colorful cast of deities, some familiar, some strange, will transport you to an ethereal plane where your presence will make all the difference — whether you choose to engage with them directly, or observe them from afar.

A searingly personal, absurdly funny new play, detangling the impact of sexual assault on one survivor and the people in their community.

Follow the trials and triumphs of a disembodied pair of legs, woodland thespians, a beleaguered stage manager, the ideal 1950s couple, Vladimir Lenin’s wife, Jay Gatsby, and more, as they detangle and process the impact of sexual assault on one survivor and the people in their community. Can they listen to each other? Can they heal?

A Lonely Realization teases out the comic absurdity of our fear and inhibitions around discussing sexual assault and invites the audience as well as the characters into a space where individuals and institutions are taught to listen, hear, and possibly even understand.

Theatre Off Jackson has been transformed into the Underworld itself for the union of Persephone and Hades — and you are invited. The Pomegranate Tree extends this honor to you mortals, who are usually forbidden in such divine spaces — but the myths you’ve read about these immortal beings have been mere whispers of the truth you’ll encounter. These gods, in all their conflict and longing, are more like you than you may think — and they’re in desperate need of your wisdom. Can you help them navigate love, death, and perhaps the hardest challenge of all, family?

This is a devised theatre piece disguised as a party, which asks you to dress up, enjoy libations, dance, and help craft the narrative anew each night. Our colorful cast of deities, some familiar, some strange, will transport you to an ethereal plane where your presence will make all the difference — whether you choose to engage with them directly, or observe them from afar.

Mix a Hitchcock masterpiece with a juicy spy novel, add a dash of Monty Python, and you have “The 39 Steps,” a fast-paced whodunit comedy. The 39 Steps follows the story of Richard Hannay, an ordinary man bored with the drudgery of life, until he is unwittingly drawn into a web of espionage and murder. As he tries to clear his name, Hannay embarks on a whirlwind adventure across England and Scotland, encountering a host of quirky characters, police chases, trains, a plane crash, handcuffs, missing fingers, and even a little good old-fashioned romance.

After a murder, the guests and staff at Monkswell Manor find themselves stranded during a snowstorm. It soon becomes clear that the killer is among them, and the strangers grow increasingly suspicious of one another. A detective interrogates the suspects: the newlyweds running the house; a spinster with a curious background; an architect who seems better equipped to be a chef; a retired Army major; a strange man who claims his car has overturned in a drift; and a jurist who makes life miserable for everyone. When a second murder takes place, tensions and fears escalate.

This record-breaking murder mystery features a brilliant surprise finish from Dame Agatha Christie, the foremost mystery writer of her time.

These gods, in all their conflict and longing, are more like you than you may think — and they’re in desperate need of your wisdom. Can you help them navigate love, death, and perhaps the hardest challenge of all, family?

This is a devised theatre piece disguised as a party, which asks you to dress up, enjoy libations, dance, and help craft the narrative anew each night. Our colorful cast of deities, some familiar, some strange, will transport you to an ethereal plane where your presence will make all the difference — whether you choose to engage with them directly, or observe them from afar.

Theatre Off Jackson has been transformed into the Underworld itself for the union of Persephone and Hades — and you are invited. The Pomegranate Tree extends this honor to you mortals, who are usually forbidden in such divine spaces — but the myths you’ve read about these immortal beings have been mere whispers of the truth you’ll encounter. These gods, in all their conflict and longing, are more like you than you may think — and they’re in desperate need of your wisdom. Can you help them navigate love, death, and perhaps the hardest challenge of all, family?

This is a devised theatre piece disguised as a party, which asks you to dress up, enjoy libations, dance, and help craft the narrative anew each night. Our colorful cast of deities, some familiar, some strange, will transport you to an ethereal plane where your presence will make all the difference — whether you choose to engage with them directly, or observe them from afar.

At school, she’s bullied by the popular crowd, and virtually invisible to everyone else. At home, she’s dominated by her loving but cruelly controlling mother. What none of them know is that Carrie’s just discovered she’s got a special power, and if pushed too far, she’s not afraid to use it.

ArtsWest’s new Christmas classic returns! Inspired by classic holiday TV specials and musicals about putting on a musical, witness this new Seattle theatre tradition as four of the city’s most beloved musical theatre stars take you on a journey of song, dance, friendship, family, and the true meaning of the holidays.

Last year, a new holiday tradition was born as ArtsWest sent four of Seattle’s hottest musical theatre stars on a cozy retreat to write the most perfect holiday show the world had ever seen. But when a blizzard hit, tensions rose and the crumpled-up notebook pages began to pile up even faster than the snow. This year, four more stars scramble to remount last year’s holiday hit. With hindsight on their side, the process should be foolproof. What could possibly go wrong?

TICKETS HERE

Reserved seating. Tickets are $49.50, or get full season subscription or flex pass for $41 per show (view season here). Reduced price tickets ($18.50) offered to those who need them (enter discount code “inclusion” during checkout process).
