Where: Blue Door Theater 319 S Cedar, Spokane, WA 99201

Spokane Playwrights Laboratory kicks off its 2025–2026 season with Mad King, an original script by local playwright Henry McNulty. This one-night-only event invites audiences to experience the thrill of brand-new theatre, where bold ideas, sharp writing, and powerful performances collide on stage for the very first time.

A white-knuckled exploration of power, logic, and humanity, Mad King examines what happens when we remove emotion and empathy from the choices that define our survival. It’s a story that asks urgent questions about the systems we trust and the people who build them.

Join us Thursday, November 13, 2025, at 7:30 p.m. at the Blue Door Theatre for this exclusive fundraiser performance and afterparty celebration. Stay after the show to meet the cast, crew, and playwright while raising a glass to the launch of SPL’s 2025–2026 season. Your ticket directly supports Spokane Playwrights Laboratory’s mission to develop and champion new theatrical voices in our community

Ticket Cost: $20
