Welcome to Dacha's first digital 24-hour theatre festival! Join us for the world premiere of five brand new plays, written and rehearsed in the span of 24 hours.

Dacha 'Round the Clock  is a 24-hour play festival for the digital age. On Friday night, artists from anywhere on the internet get together in groups of actors, a director, a playwright, and a streamer. After getting a theme and list of requirements for their shows, each group spends the evening devising & exploring the material together until a shared vision for the show emerges. The playwrights work overnight, and the next day is spent in rehearsal for a live online premiere.

The challenge and guiding principle of these pieces is attempting to answer the question "why are we doing this live?" Dacha's offline repertoire is full of immersive, interactive theatre that takes advantage of unusual physical spaces and the immediate presence of the audience. Can we capture some of that same energy in our virtual Dacha space? We sure hope so, and we have a whole 24 hours to do it!

The link to the show will be emailed out with your ticket confirmation.
There is no difference of experience between the Ticket Tiers.

This brand-new play, about a world where princesses train to save themselves, was workshopped this spring by our amazing Workshop Conservatory actors. With the input received from the cast, director, and the audience, the playwright will do one final rewrite over the summer and the production will be fully mounted by the same cast.

This event is streaming online 11/28/2020 - 12/31/2020. You will receive streaming info via email.

Have you ever wondered what happens to the sidekick after the story ends? You know, after the evil villain gets defeated, after the happily-ever-after, after their supposedly BFF abandons them for the next chapter? Come closer and I'll tell you. It's a pretty big secret. There's a safe place where secondary characters can recover and reflect. A place called: Sidekick Island.

This event is streaming online 12/11/20 - 12/31/20. Ticket link will be included in your confirmation email.

As the Covid-19 pandemic safety requirements have all but derailed and wrecked everyone's holiday plans we'd like to offer bit of balm for those abraded expectations. Join us for the reboot of our darkly colorful, occasionally cynical, often funny, and decidedly musical variety show, Christmas B-Sides & Rarities! We guarantee it will not only offer an ideal distraction for your seasonal woes, but a perfect antidote to the overly cheery, relentlessly commercialized traditional Christmas fare.

This season's one-night variety show features the storytelling talents of Jim and Olivia Jewell, Glen Erik Hamilton, Paul Shipp, Joe Zavadil and Gerard Menendez. You'll hear new music from Mazonowicz, Brittany Allyson and Uncle Eray and his band. We'll revisit some Christmas B-Sides hits of yore from Rob MacGregor and Cole Hornaday and celebrate the triumphant (albeit animated) return of celebrated Seattle comedy duo Gude/Laurance. So, let's all pour a drink, turn our faces toward the warmth of our computer screens, our backs to the cold, indifferent night and confirm the best way to survive the holidays is through a concentrated group effort.

Christmas: B-Sides & Rarities began in 2010 as a tribute to a local actor who lost his battle with alcoholism and evolved into semi-regular cabaret celebrating of the season with a dark, occasionally cynical, often funny, barrage of theatre, music, poetry and more. The Christmas show eventually splintered into multiple themes; 2013 saw Baseball: B-Sides & Rarities and later Seattle: B-Sides & Rarities as well.
