ARTISTIC DIRECTOR'S NOTE:
Thank you so much for joining OFT as we reopen our doors for our first full season since 2020. Although I’ve only been at OFT for one short year, I have come to know this place as a community full of love, creativity, courage, and integrity. It is an honor to be part of this story.
In our 2022-2023 season, every play we produce is intended to bring us together around ideas and themes that spark conversation, build empathy, and help us to heal from the last two years: in The Secret Garden we are directly talking about healing, grief and community. In the shows coming up we’ll have dance parties, hero’s journeys, and critical analysis of equity in America.
You’ll also notice that every play centers young people in leading roles. The last two years have been difficult for people of all ages, but have had a profound impact on our youth. We need to uplift, center, and celebrate their resilience and talent – especially as we rebuild our communities.
In closing, I’ll ask you these questions: What is the world you want to see in the future? What does it look like? What does it feel like? How do people treat one another? I believe that theater can play a critical role in helping us to visualize that world, and to share our ideas for transformation with one another. I hope the plays we’re sharing with you this season embody some of your hopes and dreams – and I can’t wait to sit next to you in the theater to share these stories.
BIG, big love,
Lily

She has also enjoyed acting classes offered through OFT and earned the title of ‘Best Improv.’ Ahsoka Tano from Star Wars inspires Elsa. Much like Ahsoka Tano, they are both headstrong students.

Ahmed Al Abaca - Composer & Music Director
Ahmed Al Abaca (they/them) is an African American composer, conductor, songwriter, pianist, and community facilitator. Creating power and possibility, through music, for themselves and the diverse communities they are a part of is the base of Ahmed’s work.
Raised in San Bernardino, CA, Ahmed understands the value of hard work and perseverance in the face of systemic and interpersonal challenges. Ahmed’s vision is “a new renaissance” for underrepresented composers, which centers the works of people of color, and creates opportunities to perform, record, and archive their work.
Ahmed received their B.A. in Music from Hunter College in New York and attended advanced classes in film scoring at Juilliard and UCLA Extension. While in New York, Ahmed began their professional career as a composer, scoring over 3 plays and 2 musicals. Here is where Ahmed met their creative partner and dear friend Lily Raabe – Lily has directed every show Ahmed has scored.
Lily is the perfect collaborator because she shares the same views of how art can be the conduit of change in overlooked communities. Ahmed, Lily, and Brandon Estrella created and produced an Art Festival in Hilo, Hawaii. The Live Aloha Art Festival (named by Waiakea high school students) combined Theatre, Music, and Film. As a collective, they worked together with local organizations and schools to provide a festival for the people by the people.
Over the years, Ahmed has advocated for compassionate, honest, and genuine community engagement. Currently serving as music director of South Loop Symphony, a community orchestra in Chicago, Ahmed’s passion for honest community engagement and the importance of true transparency, has connected them with Chicago’s increasingly diverse artistic community. By programming music from the 20th and 21st centuries with an emphasis on Black and Women composers, Ahmed has exposed audiences to music that has been largely forgotten or overlooked. Since moving to Chicago, Ahmed has also worked with some of the nation’s best musicians-from D-Composed, a premiere All-Black string quartet to the Chicago Sinfonietta Orchestra, as a co-presenter demonstrating the roles and responsibilities of a conductor to students in the Chicago area.
Over the past 20 years, Ahmed has had the pleasure of working with all kinds of communities from being a peer educator for 4 years while in high school to now, working with young Black and Latiné music students on the south and west sides of Chicago. Composing and arranging music for professional and community orchestras all over the US, and providing affordable music lessons to those who are passionate about learning more about music. They will continue to promote the importance of genuine, compassionate, and honest community engagement through conversation, action, and music.
Lily Raabe - Director & Costume Design Team
Lily Raabe (she/her) is a storyteller, facilitator, and community builder. She currently serves as the Artistic Director of Olympia Family Theater and a Nonprofit Consultant with Scandiuzzi Krebs. She holds her M.A. in Educational Theater for Colleges and Communities from New York University (NYU) with a focus on applied theater, directing, Theater of the Oppressed, and new works development. Raabe has over 20 years experience as a teaching artist, having worked within public schools and nonprofits from coast to coast, including The New Group, Opening Act New York, Oregon Children’s Theater, Intiman Theater, Northwest Children’s Theater, and many more. She has also devised over a dozen original productions and directed 15 new works with communities of all ages. She’s the proud parent of two Australian Shepherds and over 80 houseplants.

Natalie believes art is healing and should be practiced by all.
Rebecca Rogers - Costume Design Team
Rebecca Rogers’ lifelong love of theater has given her many opportunities onstage and behind the scenes, all of which led up to her currently trying to swallow a cactus here at Olympia Family Theater, where she has been a familiar face for nearly eight years!

She would like to let the cast and crew know, “That’s Gravity!” Rebecca would also like to thank Maren, Taz, Ivan, and Sypha for their love, patience, and support.
