The Building
Annex Theatre is a democratic collective of theatre artists dedicated to creating bold new work in an environment of improbability, resourcefulness, and risk.
In addition to new plays by living playwrights, Annex produces radical reinterpretations of classic scripts, ensemble-generated non-linear spectacles, and dynamic solo performances, as well as our monthly late-night variety show Spin the Bottle, now in its 14th year. All productions are chosen by the Annex company as a whole, through a process of proposals, interviews, readings, frenzied argument, and final consensus.
Annex Theatre is a “non-traditional” theatre space. There are ninety-nine seats, and a small lobby and bar. The ceilings are low, the bathrooms too few, the temperature control nearly nonexistent, and the entire thing is up two-and-a-half flights of stairs.
It is also reasonably well appointed technically, located in the heart of Capitol Hill, and fully booked many months in advance.
