ABOUT RCT
Renton Civic Theatre (RCT) is a nonprofit, community-driven performing arts venue located in the heart of downtown Renton. Housed in a historic theater, RCT has been a cultural cornerstone for decades, offering a wide array of live performances that include comedies, dramas, musicals, and special events. Committed to fostering local talent and making the arts accessible to all, RCT provides an inviting space for audiences and performers alike, while preserving the rich legacy of live theater in the Renton community.
Our Mission:
Renton Civic Theatre strives to enrich the artistic culture of Renton by producing high-quality, inclusive theatre that inspires, engages, and nurtures artists of all backgrounds, ages, and experience levels.
Our Vision:
At Renton Civic Theatre, our mission is to foster a vibrant and healthy arts community throughout the greater Puget Sound, with a special focus on enriching the cultural life of Renton. We are committed to producing a season of top-quality theatrical productions that inspire, entertain, and engage.
We strive to create a welcoming and inclusive space where theatre artists of all backgrounds and experience levels can safely explore their craft, collaborate, and grow. We are dedicated to introducing young people to the magic of live theatre and—through camps and classes—nurture a lifelong appreciation for the performing arts.
Through our work, we aim to promote positive values, amplify diverse voices, and provide emerging artists the opportunities they need to take bold creative steps. Our vision is to make Renton Civic Theatre a place where community, creativity, and possibility take center stage.
RCT's Board of Directors
Renton Civic Theatre’s board of directors is completely volunteer-based, and functions as what we proudly call a “working board.” Rather than serving only in an oversight capacity, our board members roll up their sleeves and actively participate in the day-to-day work that keeps the theatre thriving—from front-of-house and technical support to fundraising, community outreach, and long-term strategic planning. This hands-on model reflects our commitment to stewarding RCT with care, transparency, and a genuine love for the arts.
Branding
Our current branding was adopted in 2020 and designed by Kelly Reney. Generally speaking, the full logo (with “Renton Civic Theatre” printed in full) is used in print media, and the “RCT” shortened logo is used in electronic media or print media where space is at a premium.
Renton Civic Theatre gives permission to use our branding to make reference to Renton Civic Theatre, or to use as the basis or inspiration for new art. We reserve the right to make use of new art that includes or is based on our branding. Other uses are strictly forbidden without prior written consent from the Board of Directors.
