What’s Happening

Welcome!

We’re so glad you’re here. NWTheatre provides top-notch theatre and dance coverage, plus the region’s greatest calendar.

NWTheatre uses sidebar “ad” boxes in a unique role: to help you find stuff on the site in a pretty, graphical way. Seeing this first? Consider pausing your ad blocker for this one site.

While we’ll begin allowing a few actual ads telling people about great shows, we won’t allow anything annoying or irrelevant. (Really. It bugs us too.) Test us at our word and click pause. You can always click it again to go back as you were!
