Strawberry Jam 2025

Strawberry Jam: The Plays of Jen Silverman

Strawberry Theatre Workshop is proud to announce the 2025 Strawberry Jam. Now in its fourth year, SJAM is a Directors Festival—a unique play festival that puts directors at the center of development and creation. In addition to this opportunity for directors, SJAM25 employs 28 local actors, stage managers, designers, and builders in the largest professional arts event of its kind on Capitol Hill.

SJAM25 runs three weeks ONLY at 12th Ave Arts. Each director has showings for a single week during Thu-Fri-Sat at 7:30pm, June 12-28.

The plays featured in SJAM25 are all written by Jen Silverman.

MISSION
Strawberry Jam is a three-week arts festival dedicated to providing local directors with the opportunity to grow their craft through practice. Motivated by an observation that Seattle's outstanding acting and playwriting communities are fueled by experimental forums not availabe to directors, SJAM was born in 2022 as a unique public workshop with the director at its center. Now in its third year, SJAM features veteran and emerging artists alike, working with texts ranging from classics to original works. For its audience, the event is a wide-ranging celebration of styles, visions, and voices packed into nine nights of relentless energy at 12th Ave Arts... All that makes a Strawberry Jam.

TICKETS
Plays change weekly, and a $45 FESTIVAL PASS entitles patrons to admission (non-transferable) for any night of the festival. To attend SJAM à la carte, tickets can also be purchased for SINGLE NIGHT events at $27.
