From the Historic Theater District, which has been officially recognized since 2011, to Seattle Repertory Theatre and Book-it, Seattle has fortified its own right as a leading cultural hub in the United States for new writing and American theater. In an endeavor to amplify the voices who call Seattle home, we are excited to offer readings of several excerpts from dramatic works crafted by several wonderful theater writers living in working locally in the city.
