NOW ENROLLING FOR FALL IMPROV & SKETCH COMEDY CLASSES IN SEATTLE & TACOMA
UPCOMING SHOWS
Dear Diary is part sleepover, part confession booth, and part completely improvised chaos.
Each show, special guests crack open their real diaries, journals, and teenage notebooks to share the crushes, secrets, heartbreaks, embarrassing moments they once swore no one would ever read.
Then, Bandit Theater’s all woman-identifying improv team takes those diary entries and turns them into totally unscripted comedy inspired by the stories they’ve heard.
Come for the secrets. Stay for the comedy. And be very grateful no one found your diary.
Join Bandit as we invite some of the most talented tattoo artists onstage to talk about life, art, and everything under the sun! Enter your name to win a free tattoo while our team of improvisers creates comedy based on the interviews.
Come learn a thing or two … or nothing at all! Science, Technology, Engineering, Math, and improv comedy unite for Mad Science. Every show we invite a special guest to share their real cutting-edge research and stories from the academic front-line for our team of improv comedians to warp, twist, and turn on its head. No laboratory could have synthesized an improv show like this. (Bandit Theater IRB approved.)

A Bridgerton-inspired comedy show!
Dearest audience,
You are cordially invited to Regency, Bandit Theater’s most scandalously delightful improvised affair. Inspired by the wit of Jane Austen and the intrigue of Regency England, this fully improvised show spins tales of romance, rivalry, and reputation—where every glance holds meaning and every whisper may spark a duel.
Expect sharp-tongued banter, swooning declarations, and the occasional social misstep as our players navigate love, class, and the ever-watchful eye of polite society. No script, no safety net—just quick minds, bold choices, and a touch of delicious drama.
Dress to impress (or simply arrive curious), and prepare for an evening where fortunes are made, hearts are broken, and anything can happen… provided it’s proper.
