Old AF

Saturday, November 23 at 7:00 p.m.

Do you know what’s cool these days? Or are you totally out of touch? Either way, this show is for you! Fully improvised, these local comedians learn about new slang and the latest trends from you, the audience. Watch an opening set from University of Washington’s improv troupe, The Collective, before the Old AF improvisors make you laugh as they desperately try to stay relevant.

Sugar Plum Gary

December 13 - 24 at 7:30 p.m. (matinees at 3 p.m.)

A gentle-hearted “Santanist,” Sugar Plum Gary is a bushy-bearded man in jolly footie pajamas who has been haunted by the Holiday Spirit ever since he experienced the real Santa, an ancient and sinister creature more Lovecraft than Dickens. Asking simply, “Does anyone have a question about Christmas?,” Gary unfolds an evening of hilarious and twisted holiday glee that begins on the fateful night when Santa visited the Rankin Bass Home for Unfortunate Children, leaving Gary as the only survivor.

Available on Demand

What waits for you in the woods? Leave Only Footprints is an immersive and haunted experience set in a cursed Pacific Northwest state park along the Salish Sea where a lone hiker has recently gone missing. Venture inside to explore the mysterious wood, encounter its inhuman inhabitants, and uncover the mystery of the wayward hiker’s disappearance. As you puzzle your way through the eldritch forest, remember to stay on the path or risk leaving only footprints.
