Comments from previous producers: 

"West of Lenin offers the professional expertise and climate of Seattle’s most-established theatres, while at the same time providing the avid, small-theatre moxie of an adventuresome theatre-on-the-rise. The venue is intimate, welcoming and well-equipped, the staff is exemplary, and the leadership is committed to Seattle (and the Fremont neighborhood) as a place of discussion, diversity and discovery.
- Steven Dietz, Writer/Director (Lonely Planet, 2018)

"Being able to mold the space to fit the play is a huge differentiator for WofL. The space is set up for very high quality sound and lighting. It is an atmosphere people like being in - inviting gallery, great neighborhood and relatively easy parking. Finally, the staff is wonderful - exceptionally professional and they are focused on helping us create compelling productions."
- Stuart Nagae, Onward Ho! Productions

"WofL has been a welcoming, accessible place for artists of all ages and abilities to have a full theatrical experience. The staff is committed to supporting artists, and knowing WofL exists as a community resource enables me to dream big as a producer."
- Shana Bestock, Artistic Director, Penguin Productions

"Panel Jumper **LIVE** would not exist without the support of West of Lenin. As a co-production, all our needs are met before we arrive for our first technical rehearsal, giving us time to focus on supporting our artists and their art."
- Ben Laurance and Cole Hornaday, Co-Producers of The Panel Jumper: A Web Series Devoted to Comic Book History and Lore & The Panel Jumper **LIVE**
