Home to Oregon and Northwest Playwrights
Our focus is simple: We bring writers and performers together in the same room to craft, shape, and strengthen works that contribute to the American theatre landscape. Through full productions, readings, workshops, and collaborative development, we're building theatre that speaks to both our region and the wider world.
Learn more about the 2025 Summer FestivalTheatre 33, in residence at Willamette University, is a new play development company that helps Oregon/NW playwrights develop their new scripts from our 60-hour rehearsed workshop production (fully designed lights, sound, props, set, costumes, entirely staged with scripts in hand), to a world premiere full production.
Theatre 33 - 2023 Summer New Play Festival is supported by a grant from Transient Occupancy Tax from the City of Salem.
