Seattle Public Theater and the Seattle Public Education Department are excited to announce youth auditions for The Clockwork Professor by Maggie Lee. This production will be cast with teens and produced by professional Seattle theater artists, including director Gavin Reub.
About the Show:
Professor Pemberton is a humble inventor, a quiet man of science. As political unrest sweeps over the great city of New Providence, buried secrets from his past threaten to destroy everything that he holds dear, and perhaps even the Crown itself. From romance to royal airships to roving inter-dimensional portals, join up with The Clockwork Professor in this action-packed adventure of fantastical science fiction with a steampunk twist!

Seattle Public Theater is honored to become the home of the Youth Voices program. In this third year of the program, Youth Voices hosted its own public reading on March 25th at Seattle Public Theater. Additionally, they will perform at Seattle Repertory Theatre’s Youthfest on June 1st.
In the Youth Voices program, participants go through the process of making a personal story into a theatrical piece and develop an original work. Led by Education Director Jenn Ruzumna, and guidance from mentors including, Zoé Shields, Indira Rampersad, Maggie Lee, Lisa Every, Joy McCullough, Angela Russell and Producing Artistic Director Amy Poisson, this series includes one-on-one weekly meetings, group workshops, and guidance throughout the process of sculpting an original work.
Themes of this years readings include, earning the respect of your teammates, confronting the imaginary world you left behind in lockdown, fighting to be a messy, nuanced person, packing and leaving your childhood home behind, celebrating the love of family, searching for something better in the 80’s, and choosing a dress for yourself instead of others damnit!
