SUBJECT

Co-Production

Written by Raya Tuffaha
Directed by Melanie Godsey

April 30 – May 9, 2027

An up-close anti-rom com.

Tara's near Puget Sound for the first time since college, and someone with a familiar face remembered her name. That someone is Vic, who, despite being dead set on winning a local photography contest with his dad's old camera, has no clue where to begin. And they're both gonna be okay. Starting over is easier with a partner who sees you. Right? SUBJECT is an up-close anti-rom com about holding each other.

Tickets

Every ticket gets you the same seat in the same room, so pick the price that works for you.

  • Friend of Annex — $40: $40 for 40 years: fuel new work, balance pay-what-you-can tickets, and support the Annex mission.

  • Standard Admission — $25: Our standard price, kept low so more people can come.

  • Pay What You Can — from $5: Price shouldn’t keep anyone from art

Can’t make it in person? Every mainstage is also live streamed at the same prices.
