About us:
We are the student-run theatre company at The Evergreen State College in Olympia, Washington. Founded in 2022, we aim to continue the legacy of the performing arts at The Evergreen State College by providing theatrical tech, production, and performance opportunities to our campus. Theatre is about providing stories from a variety of diverse perspectives – specifically, perspectives that our community needs to hear at different moments in time. It is through this that we can create a campus culture of empathy and critical thought.
Students have the opportunity to produce and participate in main stage productions, educational theatre workshops, campus events and programs, tabling, art fairs, and more. Through these we create countless opportunities for Evergreen students to cultivate not only their skills, but also their community. It's never just one person tasked with making a production. We strive to bring in as wide a range of people, skill sets, and perspectives as possible.
