The Empire Strips Back was first performed in Sydney, Australia in 2011. It was an instant success, and has only grown in popularity as it’s toured across the world. The sets, costumes, and performers continue to get better every year, and this Seattle run is sure to be the best it’s ever been.

Great music, silly skits, and masterful dancing will transport anyone in attendance to a galaxy far, far away.
Fans have enjoyed these impressive performances across the globe. AisleSeatReivew described the show as “The most fun you’ll have in a theater all summer long,” and Ariana Bindman of SFGate said it was “One of the most memorable and impressive live performances [she’d] ever seen.”
