We are currently raising funds for "This Is A Drama Comedy," a new evening-length production by Amy J Lambert and RicketySticks Dance-Theater. Delving into the essence of theater, comedy, and resilience, this innovative show challenges conventions and explores the rituals and traditions that shape our lives. Beginning and ending with a sacrifice, the performance navigates the cyclical nature of human existence amidst the chaos and absurdity of our world. Join us on a journey of introspection and laughter as we confront the challenges of moving forward with humor and grace. Premiering in March 2025 at 12th Ave Arts’ Main Stage Theater, this production showcases the talents of vibrant Seattle performers and artists.
RicketySticks Dance-Theater illuminates the Seattle arts scene with a blend of concert dance and theater under the guidance of choreographer and director Amy J Lambert. Born from the creative cauldron of AJnC Dance-Theater, RicketySticks Dance-Theater intertwines whimsy with introspection, inviting audiences on a journey through the absurdities of the human experience.
Celebrated for productions like Young Manic/ I Wanted to Be on Broadway (2018), hailed as “an entertaining comedy and a sustained reflection on the role of comic performance art in our time.” by Deconstruct, Amy J Lambert’s ability to infuse choreography with humor earned her a coveted DanceCrush award from SeattleDances.
In 2015, Lambert's evening-length show Believe Me Or Not premiered at Capitol Hill’s 12th Avenue Arts to sold-out audiences. The production transported viewers into a whimsical world where a quirky society of wig-wearing, blue-collar tea drinkers embarked on a quest for legitimacy—or at least a deeper understanding—in the midst of everyday routines and societal expectations.
Looking forward, RicketySticks Dance-Theater is dedicated to establishing a robust foundation for creating and presenting innovative dance-theater performances. Their mission extends beyond the stage, aiming to cultivate a community where laughter and artistry intersect, challenging conventions and celebrating the joy of artistic exploration.
Join us in experiencing the magic of RicketySticks Dance-Theater, where innovation meets entertainment, and every performance is a testament to the transformative power of dance-theater.
