FinalLogoTransparent

When:

September 11, 12, 13 at 8pm
September 14th at 2pm

Where:

Theatre Off Jackson
409 7th Ave S, Seattle, WA 98104

SET is happy to announce that musician Sarah Shay will once again be performing “Zoey’s Silver Spacesuit” on September 11th, prior to the 8PM opening night performance of The Doctor.

About the show:

Seattle Experimental Theater is proud to present the return of its hit show, The Doctor, an improvised parody of Doctor Who. The Doctor is a completely unscripted time traveling comedy. At the start of every performance, the cast will get suggestions from the audience that they will then use to create the time, location and plot of the show. Every performance promises to be unique, fun and family friendly.

In addition to being improvised every night, The Doctor will have its cliff hanger ending from January resolved with the thrilling (and still improvised) performance September 11th. Will the Doctor be able to fix the damage done to the timeline and get back Emma and the TARDIS? Whatever happens, the Doctor will wrestle with the consequences for the rest of our September performances.

The Doctor is created by Jeannine Clarke, Sam Hecker and Tony Beeman. It is directed by Jeannine Clarke (director of the hit Star Trek parody, Where No Man Has Gone Before and Wedding Horror Stories).

The Doctor is played by Tony Beeman. The cast of The Doctor is Elizabeth Brammer, Lauren Bond, Ashley Flannegan Russell, Jana Hutchison, Wayne Pishue, Sarah Scheller and Greg Stackhouse.

The Doctor is produced in association with Theatre Off Jackson.

L to R: Elizabeth Brammer (as "Emma"), Tony Beeman (as "The Doctor") and Dan Posluns.
