Welcome to The Drama Room!
The Drama Room is an intimate 40-seat black box theater located on the third floor of University Heights Community Center. With tickets and concessions available at the door (and advanced tickets online), it’s a cozy, speakeasy-style venue that makes live comedy easy to enjoy. Concessions include candy, soda, water, beer, and canned cocktails. The space hosts a wide range of performances, including Jet City Improv ensemble shows, community favorites, and experimental comedy.
In a city known for its high cost of living, The Drama Room is a vital, affordable stage where up-and-coming comedians and improvisers can perform, connect, and hone their craft. As Jet City Improv’s home for bold ideas and new voices, it’s a place where Seattle’s comedy community comes to grow.
