WHAT’S NEW
WETWorks
A Playwright-in-Residence program
Conceived and Curated by Nelle Tankus and Anamaria Guerzon
In Partnership with Hugo House
FALL 2025- SPRING 2026 | Hugo House
WETWorks is our brand new Playwright-in-Residence program, in partnership with Hugo House. Over the next year, WET will collaborate with three playwrights for a three-month paid residency each. They will be provided space to write and a creative team, culminating in a final presentation at Hugo House at the end of their tenure. WETWorks provides the tangible resources, community connections, and creative space needed for Seattle playwrights. With this program we hope to answer a call for Seattle based playwriting opportunity, as well as echo the Pacific Northwest lens and experience back to ourselves.
A BIT ABOUT US
Through collaborative artistic leadership, Washington Ensemble Theatre creates audacious stories for adventurous Seattle audiences.
WET is committed to maintaining an environment wherein our members, as well as artists from our community, are challenged to grow through our work as an ensemble. We intend for our theatre to be a physical and creative intersection for community and art in Seattle, and we hope to expand our contemporary audience, by fostering a love of theatre’s humanity, utility, and vitality.
