MISSION STATEMENT: NCTC is devoted to producing timely, vital stories that will reconnect Seattle audiences to the transcendent power of live performance. We believe that “story is king” and are committed to plays that are fearless, heightened, sincere, dangerous, crass, erotic, ugly, and full of hope. Our shows are produced with a visceral simplicity that will stir your imagination to new heights and never, ever do your thinking for you. We vow to provide the community of Seattle a fearless ensemble of local ar tists whose vast experience and developed sense of chemistry provide a cohesive, dynamic, consistent theater-going experience we believe our audiences long for.
