Seattle Rep Announces Change to 2022/23 Season

Seattle Rep

Is This a Room has been replaced by August Wilson’s How I Learned What I Learned due to unforeseen scheduling issues.

The Oregon Shakespeare Festival’s production of August Wilson’s beloved, moving theatrical memoir, How I Learned What I Learned, has taken the place of Seattle Rep’s Spring production of Tina Satter’s Is This a Room owing to unforeseen schedule difficulties with the artists involved. Directed by Tim Bond, How I Learned What I Learned will run April 21 through May 14, 2023.

“We are thrilled to be bringing Oregon Shakespeare Festival’s extraordinary production of How I Learned What I Learned to Seattle audiences this season” said Seattle Rep Managing Director Jeffrey Herrmann. “We have a deep history with August Wilson, How I Learned What I Learned, and his entire American Century Cycle with Seattle Rep providing an artistic home to the playwright for many years. Not only did this solo-show have its world premiere at Seattle Rep in 2003, but it marked Wilson’s acting debut. How I Learned What I Learned is a wonderful addition to our 2022/23 season and will run during the 20th anniversary of its world premiere.”

Season ticket subscribers will have their tickets exchanged automatically from Is This a Room  to How I learned What I Learned. Single tickets for How I Learned What I Learned are on sale. Tickets for the rest of the entire 2022/23 season are also now on sale.
