Umbrella Project is a theater company that is dedicated to moving new plays forward. Based in the Pacific Northwest, this company injects high-quality new work into the flourishing theater community of the region.

At Umbrella Project, we believe that new plays are essential to keeping theater fresh and relevant.

Our productions are always thought-provoking, challenging, and engaging – we want our audiences to leave our shows feeling inspired and energized.
One of our recent productions was Seayoung Yim's Untitled Play About Institutional Racism and the Nonprofit Industrial Complex. This play explores important issues related to race, power dynamics, and social justice in America today. It was a powerful piece that resonated deeply with audiences who were moved by its message.
But what sets Umbrella Project apart from other theater companies? For starters, we have an unwavering commitment to quality. We believe that every aspect of a production – from casting to set design – should be top-notch if it's going to be successful. That's why we work tirelessly behind-the-scenes to ensure that every detail is perfect before opening night.
We also pride ourselves on being an inclusive company that welcomes artists from all backgrounds. We believe that diversity makes us stronger as a team and as a community – it allows us to tell stories from different perspectives and connect with audiences in meaningful ways.
Another thing that sets us apart is our dedication to education. We offer workshops for aspiring playwrights where they can learn about everything from character development to marketing their work effectively. We also provide opportunities for actors, directors, designers, stage managers – anyone who wants hands-on experience in the theater world.
So why does our work matter? We believe that theater has the power to change hearts and minds. By producing new plays that tackle important issues, we hope to spark conversations and inspire action. We want our audiences to leave our shows feeling empowered to make a difference in their communities.
In conclusion, Umbrella Project is a theater company that is making waves in the Pacific Northwest.
