Tonight would have been the opening for “Troilus and Cressida.”
Seattle Shakespeare Company looks very different today than it did a month ago. We look very different today than we imagined we would. Tonight was meant to be the opening

Limiting your time with others? Since you may have a bit more time at home in your life, we’ve chosen some fun diversions that will also help prepare you to see our upcoming production of Troilus and Cressida.
Seattle Shakespeare Company unveiled its 2020-2021 season containing several artist-initiated projects around the theme of “Family Trust.” Highlights include a comedy by a Shakespeare contemporary, the return of upstart crow collective to the Seattle Shakespeare stage, a 20th Century American classic, and the beloved bickering of Beatrice and Benedick.
Troilus and Cressida is a savage and bitterly funny condemnation of war told through the eyes of two passionate lovers.
Directed by Annie Lareau, our new production of Shakespeare’s late masterpiece The Tempest begins performances Oct. 15 in the Center Theatre.
The Tempest is unlike any other play in Shakespeare’s body of work. It takes place all in one day; it is filled with magic and spirits; it revisits many themes Shakespeare has tackled before; and, it focuses on Prospero, a main character who is totally in control of his own story.
