Since opening its doors at its original home on 4th Avenue in 1988, Annex Theatre has produced hundreds of new plays and performances—always seeking work that explores what makes the medium of theater different from television, movies, or the internet. We consider ourselves part of the research and development wing of American theater, producing the work that has the greatest risk, giving new and emerging artists the opportunity to succeed—or fail spectacularly in the rawest yet most supportive forum we can provide.

Now at 11th & E Pike St. in Capitol Hill, Annex Theatreʼs 25th season is no different, featuring four Mainstage productions, two Late Night productions, and two Off Night productions.
