About Northwest Asian American Theatre [back to top]

Northwest Asian American Theatre (NWAAT) has been this region�s premier center for the presentation and development of theatrical, dance, and video works by Asian and Asian Pacific Island (API) American artists since 1973. Our mission is to seek out, develop, promote and produce API American artists, with a commitment to original and innovative works. Through our work we hope to educate and entertain all audiences regarding the API American experience, develop API youth participation in the arts, and create a better understanding and appreciation of global API arts and artists.
