Where No Man Has Gone Before

Seattle’s hit improvised Star Trek parody returns to mark their 5-year mission
Directed by Jeannine Clarke
June 9 – 18th, 2016
Theatre Off Jackson
Tickets on sale now! (Brown Paper Tickets)

Our 5-year mission has been a successful one – join us as your favorite characters and actors return to the bridge of the Enterprise for their only journey in 2016!

The Journal: Improvised Nicholas Sparks

Behind every great love is a great comedy.

Directed by Jeannine Clarke
July 14 – 23, 2016
Location: Ballard Underground

A romantic comedy based on the works of Nicholas Sparks (The Notebook, Dear John, The Lucky One). “The Journal” creates a different romantic tale every night, based on audience suggestions. Will our lovers stay together or break up? The audience decides. The Journal returns for the first time since its debut in SET’s second season in 2012.

Time’s Arrow

A world premiere improvised play: One Place; Infinite Time

Directed by Liz Brammer
October 13 – 22, 2016
Location: Ballard Underground
Auditions will be held in summer/early fall

The spaces around us are rich with history and potential; haunted by ghosts and gilded by dreams. Halls and streets and fields are rich with meaning defined by wonderful, terrible, forgettable, sublime individual and collective experiences, yet we exist in them for only one moment at a time. In Time’s Arrow, we invite you to join us in exploring the layers of life piled in a single location that means something to a member of our audience.

VIDEO: The Wolf and The Witch Preview!

What’s The Wolf and the Witch? What’s so great about fairy tales? Meet two of our cast members and hear about the 2014 run – and what to expect from 2015 – in this short preview video.

The Wolf and the Witch is SET’s improvised fairy tale production for the whole family, returning Saturdays September 5 – 19 at 2PM at Theatre Off Jackson in Seattle.

SEATTLE, WA – Join us for a SETember to remember.

Seattle Experimental Theater is proud to announce SETember 2015: a mini theater festival that showcases SET’s most popular productions at Theater Off Jackson in Seattle’s International District. SETember begins on Labor Day Weekend and runs through September 21st, 2015.

Since 2011, Seattle Experimental Theater has been bringing groundbreaking improvised theater to the Seattle area. Thousands of audience members over the years have smiled with us, laughed with us, and even cried with us. In addition to these numerous Seattle-area productions over the last 4 years, SET shows have been featured at events including Emerald City Comiccon, the Seattle Festival of Improv Theater, and the Hawaii Improv Festival. Now, for the first time, audiences can see multiple SET productions in the span of a single month at a fantastic venue.

In the evenings, SET will showcase their flagship, smash hit improvised sci-fi shows, Where No Man Has Gone Before and The Doctor. On Saturday afternoons, SET brings back last year’s original The Wolf and the Witch, a series of improvised fairy tales for kids and kids at heart of all ages. See your old favorite or discover a new favorite during SETember.

SETember is produced in association with Theatre Off Jackson.
