The Space

Theatre Off Jackson is a 140-seat venue appropriate for performance, music, film, readings, fundraisers and special events. The Theatre Off Jackson Upstairs Gallery is a large, open room suitable for multiple purposes.
Co-productions have priority on space at TOJ. If there are any slots in our season still open after the Co-Productions are chosen, TOJ may choose to make the space available for rent for those dates (but rentals are also vetted for alignment with our mission).
Land Acknowledgment
Theatre Off Jackson acknowledges that we are operating on the ancestral lands of the Duwamish people who are the original stewards of this land and continue to live here today. We honor the work of Indigenous artists in our community and understand how important Indigenous art is to the future of this land. The Duwamish people have an oral history that stretches back to the last Ice Age. Their ancestral lands encompass the Seattle/Greater King County area, and they have given care and Lushootseed names to the geography that surrounds us today. An acknowledgment like this is nowhere near enough to heal a history of colonization and the unkept promises made in The Treaty of Point Elliott in 1855, but it is a start to better align ourselves with Indigenous communities and grow to become stronger advocates for Indigenous rights. Today, the Duwamish still host events and meet at the Duwamish Longhouse located in what we call West Seattle. The Duwamish are continuously fighting to become a federally recognized tribe and you can stand with them by writing a letter of support to your local, state, and federal representatives using the resources from the Duwamish Tribe website, www.duwamishtribe.org.
