The landscape design for Seattle Children’s Theatre (SCT) joyfully extends storytelling from the stage into the surrounding outdoor environment. A vibrant, colorful pathway encircles the building, connecting immersive outdoor stages enriched by memorable quotes from iconic SCT plays. These narrative-inspired spaces are structured around Joseph Campbell’s "Hero’s Journey," creating inviting gathering spots for festivals, education, and play, bridging the indoor theatre experience with the outdoors in engaging, meaningful ways.

Rooted in SCT’s strategic vision, the landscape embodies storytelling, universal accessibility, and sustainability. Native Pacific Northwest plantings, integrated seating, and ADA-compliant pathways ensure an inclusive, welcoming environment.
