After the fair, the building became the new home of the Seattle Repertory Theatre. In 1982, they moved into the brand-new Bagley Wright Theatre next door. In 1987, the Playhouse reopened as Intiman Theatre, which still puts on a number of shows every year. The fountain still remains in the courtyard.
