12 Minutes Max is back for our 22/23 season! Join us at Base on March 19, 2023 at 5pm for opening night of the second of three 12 Minutes Max editions scheduled this year. An informal showcase of contemporary and experimental performance works in dance, theater, music and multimedia, 12 Minutes Max provides a platform for artists to showcase 12 minutes of material supported by limited technical elements.This upcoming edition is curated by Ben Swenson-Klatt and YUELAN and features Ankita Das, Melia Dodge, Naomi Blue Nieves Driver, Raquel Gordon, Hsin-Yu Huang, Olga Kravtsova, Kelly Langeslay, and Nelle Tankus.

Join us for MAXED, a FREE opening night party on March 19 to celebrate the performers!

Masks are required for Base events. 

Accessibility at Base:

The Factory has a ramped entrance located at the north end of the building (through the orange door); the southern entrance of the building is only accessible by stairs. The building has limited outside lighting and can be difficult to navigate and locate when its dark out.

Once inside, Base is accessible by ramp through our front doors. Please note that Base is not a scent-free space. The Factory has two gender neutral multi-stall restrooms and two single stall restrooms that are wheelchair accessible.

Because we share a building with other studios, there are often industrial noises throughout the building and heavy machinery operated such as forklifts.

Any additional accessibility needs/requests for the show? Reach out to shann@thisisbase.org

This program is supported in part by the Washington State Arts Commission.
