A wonderful community theater experience! The staff is quite friendly and kind, and the staging area is well lit and open. As an introvert, the tight, seating arrangement was a bit uncomfortable for me, so I probably won't return. However, I had an amazing experience, watching a performance by Master Shoko Zama.

Great little theater. Made the performance feel special. I saw Alice in Shadowland and it was phenomenal.

I have attended multiple shows in this space; I’ve attended dance classes and rehearsals held at Yaw; and I have even performed to sold-out audiences at this venue, as well as held photo and video shoots there with our dance company. Stella has been a very easy person to work with/rent from, and the space has such a great setup for hosting some of my favorite activities! :-) Coalescence Dance Company loves working with Stella!

Fantastic art space populated by talent. The theater itself is a great small presentation space, good for practice and shows.

This arts space is in industrial Georgetown. It is unassuming on the outside.Inside it is clean and professionally built out, with a hive of artists and two movement studios also going under the name of Base which can be used for performances. It is in the Factory Building of Equinox Studios.I saw my friends' dance performance here.Dance is a tough art endeavour. You need a large heated space with a good floor, which is expensive in artistic cities enmeshed in endless real estate speculation. In ballet and modern, with the experience of time, you gain expressive skills, while the same time wages a war of attrition on your bones and sinews. To maintain your skills, you have to be practicing several to seven days a week. Dance has a specialized audience and doesn't generate much revenue. It can take months of rehearsal to develop a piece that shows once or a few evenings. So with all those challenges, it is a pleasure to have a small, about 100 person audience performance and rehearsal space, in fact two, back to back. As a teaching and rehearsal space, it has mirrors, windows, and grey linoleum over a sprung floor. For performance it has very solid, carpeted movable risers, and folding chairs. There is a grey floor to ceiling curtain system on three sides which erases the windows and mirrors. The sound system is flown mackie SRMs on the four corners. The ceiling is 20 feet high. There is an elevated tech space and up to date theatrical lighting control. The bathrooms are clean and new, really sparkling. The building is wheelchair accessible, though it might be bumpy from the street parking to the main building entrance. The building is sprinklered and safe, with multiple exits, unlike many janky art warehouses we have known and loved. The building is home to art studios and creative businesses. Throughout, their work covers the walls. The building is in the Equinox Studios complex which has been a space for artists for 15 years.There is a blacksmith-welder who does architectural work there, perfect for an industrial area.There is not a huge amount of street parking, so it is best to arrive early for performance events. Yaw Theater is an up to date space for classes, rehearsals, and shows serving the Seattle metro from Georgetown.
