The Intiman Theatre in Seattle, Washington, was founded in 1972 by Margaret Booker, who named it for August Strindberg's Stockholm theater. With a focus on a resident acting ensemble, fidelity to the playwright's intentions and a close relationship between actor and audience, the Intiman established itself as Seattle's "classic" theater. Its debut season in 1972 included Rosmersholm, The Creditors, The Underpants, and Brecht on Brecht.
