Welcome to Hellingham, where everyone is as silly as they are suspect! Improvisers will take inspiration from the audience to create their character, drawing from the Bowl of Fate to find out if they will be witness, kill, or be killed. Only the improviser knows their character's fate, until it is revealed on stage!

        We acknowledge that Whatcom County is located on the unceded territory of the Coast Salish Peoples. They cared for the lands that included what we’d call the Puget Sound region, Vancouver Island and British Columbia since time immemorial. This gives us the great obligation and opportunity to learn how to care for our surrounding areas and all the natural and human resources we require to live. We express our deepest respect and gratitude for our indigenous neighbors, the Lummi Nation and Nooksack Tribe, for their enduring care and protection of our shared lands and waterways.
