Azeotrope is Seattle-based theatre company specializing in new work that focuses on bringing voice and representation to the marginalized and invisible.

History

Azeotrope was founded in 2010 by Seattle actor Richard Nguyen Sloniker and director Desdemona Chiang, who met as graduate students at the University of Washington School of Drama.[1] The company debuted its first production, Red Light Winter by Adam Rapp, and was subsequently invited to participate in ACT Theatre's Central Heating Lab program. In 2012, they produced Jesus Hopped the 'A' Train by Stephen Adly Guirgis, which won the 2012 Gregory Awards for Outstanding Production, Outstanding Direction, Outstanding Scenic Design, and Outstanding Supporting Actor;[2] as well as the Gypsy Lee Rose awards and Footlight Awards.

Azeotope's most noted production to date is Sound by Don Nguyen, bilingual play performed in American Sign Language and spoken English, featuring a mixed ensemble of Deaf and hearing actors.[3][4]

In 2018, they produced Building the Wall by Robert Schenkkan, a two actor drama set in the near dystopian future where President Donald Trump's anti-immigration policies lead to the mass detention of thousands of people and devastating consequences.[5]
