| Imagined Reality Improv
June 24th & October 14th
No scripts! No safety net! Comedy made up on the spot!
Since 2016, Imagined Reality Improv has been entertaining audiences throughout the Olympic Peninsula. While the four women and three men share a love of improv, they come from varied walks of life: a scientist, two lawyers, a classical musician, an HR guru, a marketing expert and a teenage student – each bringing something different to the performances. A typical Imagined Reality Improv show consists of a variety of short-form “games” or scenes, much like the Whose Line Is It Anyway? TV show. What makes the scenes special is that there are no scripts and everything is made up on-the-spot from audience suggestions, leading to unexpected and often hilarious results.
Come join us for an evening of comedy at OTA! While all ages are welcome, show content is typically rated around PG-13. | Buy Tickets |

| Robin Hood
August 4 - 13
It sure is hard to be humble when you're a swashbuckling, egocentric super-hero. But our gallant guy-in-green tries his best as he swaggers through The Somewhat True Tale of Robin Hood, a frantically funny, Monty Pythonesque retelling of the classic. This time around, the legendary hero, in his never-ending quest to aid the needy, encounters such an eclectic cast of characters that you've got an irreverent jaunt through Sherwood Forest you won't soon forget! | Buy Tickets |
