Thanks to a generous grant from the Paul G. Allen Family Foundation, SCT is able to expand our One&Five Program for the 24-25, and 25-26 seasons. SCT established the One&Five initiative to expand access to more students with the goal of ensuring all Seattle Public School students see a live theatre performance and experience a theatre education workshop as they enter and exit elementary school. We're eager to connect with more Seattle students and educators during our 25-26 season, through the following program offerings:
