Welcome to the Northwest Classical Theatre Company. I started this company for the most selfish of reasons. I felt at the time that no one was presenting plays that I wanted to see or in ways I thought they should be performed. I wanted to perform plays for their artistic merit or for their entertainment value, not for their ticket selling ability. I wanted to present plays in an unadorned, accessible way that mirrored not only my artistic sensibilities, but my belief that theatre is about communicating with an audience first and formost. And finally, I wanted to have fun. I remember several years ago marveling that every show we had done up until that point had been enjoyable one way or another. It occurred to me that some day that streak would have to come to an end.

Several years later, it's still going strong.
