About

Seattle Rep's Spaces include Bagley Wright Theater, Leo K. Theater and The PONCHO Forum.

- Bagley Wright Theater
Named in honor of Seattle Rep's first Board of Trustees president, the Bagley Wright Theater opened on October 13, 1983 with the world premiere of Michael Weller's The Ballad of Soapy Smith.

Beginning in 2021, the Bagley Wright Theater is undergoing a multi-year renovation to replace seats, create additional wheelchair-accessible locations, and improve sightlines. As of October 2022, the Bagley has 673 seats.

- Leo K. Theater
The Leo Kreielsheimer Theater opened in December 1996 as Seattle Rep's ""second stage."" The Leo K. was made possible in great part to a $2 million gift from The Kreielsheimer Foundation, a $1 million gift from then Board Chair Marsha S. Glazer, and the leadership of Capital Campaign chairs Ann Ramsay-Jenkins and Stanley Savage.

There are 282 seats total: 192 on the orchestra level (including loge), plus 90 balcony and box seats.

- The PONCHO Forum
Constructed in 1983, this black box space is in daily use for a variety of mission-driven activities—from mainstage rehearsals and new play readings to youth arts education workshops, public programs, and community engagement initiatives.

Renovated in 2018, it now includes state-of-the-art new theatrical sound and lighting systems, and audiovisual capabilities to ensure artists have the tools that they need to create theater of the highest caliber. And for audiences and patrons, there is a new flexible seating unit and a gorgeous window installed that opens up our artistic process to observers outside.
