SOTF HISTORY

The Seattle Outdoor Theater Festival began in 2001 when GreenStage – Seattle’s Shakespeare in the Park Company, Theater Schmeater, and Seattle Shakespeare’s Wooden O joined forces to bring a full weekend of live theatre to Volunteer Park in Seattle. Since then the festival has grown to include up to three stages and twenty performances from several local theater companies. All in two days in one park… AND IT’S FREE!
