About Our Guest Artist Series

In addition to our MainStage productions, Open Eye is deeply committed to curating and presenting a dynamic Guest Artist Series that highlights emerging local artists and innovative performing ensembles who tell stories in ways that are fresh, fun, and experimental. 

Tune in Tuesday mornings at 10 a.m./9 a.m. Central for ‘The Doctor Wee-Woo Show’. Let Doctor Wee-Woo help YOU with all the scrapes and boo-boos of life!

You can write a letter describing your problem and mail it to: The Doctor Wee-Woo Show, 354 La Cuenta Blvd, Suite 280, Los Angeles, California, U.S.A. 90010

Please DO NOT write about failed dreams, letting go of the past, and/or sasquatch politics.  

‘The Doctor Wee-Woo Show’, an original comedy by an alleged Theatre Company, follows the eponymous Doctor Wee-Woo and his friends (Mailbag, Mrs. Apple Tree, Sedrick the Sasquatch, and more) as they perform their award-winning and long-running children’s television program.

But something feels… wrong. Haven’t they done this before? Who are they performing for? And why does Doctor Wee-Woo keep yelling?

About the Artists

Jake Mierva & Audience Member in 3 Guys Who Get Hit With Hot Dogs, Snow Cones, etc.,

an alleged Theatre Company is a theatre company (allegedly) based in Minneapolis, Minnesota. 

It was founded in 2017 by local mischief-makers and ne’er-do-wells Jake Mierva and Danylo Loutchko. They somehow felt they were qualified to write, produce, and act in a play.

Today, with ten original productions under their belts, they feel only marginally more qualified. 

In 2019, an alleged Theatre Company shifted focus from being a vessel for Jake and Danylo to put up their silly plays, to an organization dedicated to fostering artistic and comedic excellence through artist development and quality performances. Learn more.
