About our new home & co-producers:

Balagan Theater

Who are these Balagan? We're glad you asked! Not only are they our new hosts at our awesome NEW SPACE (still in the heart of Capitol Hill - and we still have a BAR!), but they're an awesome theater company, too: Founded in 2006 by Jake Groshong and Kaitie Warren, Balagan Theatre concluded its inaugural season with great success. Balagan received two Footlight Awards from the Seattle Times, including "Theater on the Rise," and was named a finalist in the NWSource Peoples Pick of 2007.

Past productions have been named Critics' Picks, Best Bets, and Theatrical Highlights by the Seattle Times and the Seattle P-I, and were recommended by The Stranger. Balagan Theatre is committed to professional quality in a fringe theater, and values performing relevant texts from a wide range of styles and eras, with equally varied casts.

Mission: Balagan Theatre is committed to creating a diverse body of work that engages its audience with passionate, thought-provoking productions of the highest artistic quality.
