Inspecting Carol
Thursday, Friday, Saturday, November 20, 21, 22, 2025 at 7pm and Sunday, November 23, 2025 at 2pm
Created by Daniel Sullivan & The Seattle Repertory Theatre
Directed by Justina Mattos
A small theater company is facing funding issues and desperately trying to impress a potential National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) inspector to secure grant money. A seemingly clueless man shows up looking for an audition and is mistakenly assumed to be the inspector. The actors, convinced of his importance, cater to him, even giving him a role, while simultaneously trying to put on a decent production of A Christmas Carol. Everything that can go wrong, does, leading to comedic mayhem and a production that spirals out of control. Inspecting Carol, often described as being in the vein of Noises Off, is known for its fast-paced, door-slamming, chaotic humor.
