Theater Spo®ts

      

     

When Theater Sports and the new company of Unexpected Productions moved to our new theater space, we found ourselves perfectly placed in the Pike Place Market area of downtown. Post alley is a quaint location right in the midst of tourism, theaters and the general nightlife of the waterfront area of Seattle.

Now that we had our own space we had the ability to schedule more shows during the week and had the freedom to permanently set the stage as desired. Prior to the move we were utilizing theaters that allowed us to perform after the main stage show let out for the night. This meant that we could only perform one show an night with no guarantee as to when that may be. Our audience could never count on when our show started from month to month as that time fluctuated with the running time of the previous performance.

Everyone helped to paint and to fix up our new space to accommodate our show and our audience. It was a huge success and I stayed on performing there every weekend until I left to go on the road as a professional stand-up comic.

I miss everyone very much and I miss working with such a talented group of actors. I learned a great deal in the 6 years that I was with Theater Sports. I learned the importance of telling a story which made so much more sense after a career of working with stand-up comics who often only go for the gag and usually cheap ones at that.
