Staged Reading of play about CHOP
11TH & PINE was slated as the first full production in of Sound Theatre’s 2023 season. Due to the needs of new work and the sensitive nature of working with real people’s narratives, they decided to present 11TH & PINE as a limited staged reading instead of a fully designed production. an essential Seattle story that must not be forgotten. 
11TH & PINE takes us into the heart of Seattle’s 2020 protests: the people. Yeboah and a team of eight University of Washington researchers weave first-person accounts of protestors, community members, police reports, and media into an honest, dynamic narrative. Open conversations with interviewed CHOP community members continue to shape subsequent drafts. The result is a striking piece that holds many of the same questions we have today: What does it take to create lasting change? How can we reconcile larger systems and internal conflicts to foster true community healing? 11TH & PINE, a play written for Seattle’s citizenry, invites you to explore the question for yourself.
