In the face of the pandemic, Capitol Hill’s theater community is trying to grow. This February, Intiman Theatre debuts its first production in its new home on Capitol Hill. This will be Intiman’s first stage production since COVID cast theaters across the country into darkness — and first on Harvard Ave.

Velocity Dance Center has announced its 2022 season, its first season without a dedicated home on Capitol Hill. Interim artistic and managing director Erin Johnson shared with CHS how much the company has gone through in the past few years. “We went through two pretty substantial leadership transitions, we left our old space, we turned 25.”

Velocity left its Capitol Hill space on 12th Ave and has since developed a new strategic plan for what comes next. While its 25th season will be across a variety of venues, its future home will most likely not be on the Hill.
