Portland Center Stage
Portland Center Stage at The Armory exists to create transcendent theatrical experiences and community programs that break down the barriers separating people.
Portland Center Stage is the largest theater company in Portland, and among the top 20 regional theaters in the country. Established in 1988 as a branch of the Oregon Shakespeare Festival, the company became independent in 1994. Under the leadership of Artistic Director Marissa Wolf and Interim Managing Director Liam Kaas-Lentz, the company produces a mix of classic, contemporary, and world premiere productions, along with a variety of high-quality education and community programs. As part of its dedication to new play development, the company has produced 28 world premieres, many of which were developed at its annual JAW New Play Festival. Portland Center Stage’s home is The Armory, aan historic building originally constructed in 1891. After a major renovation, The Armory opened in 2006 as the first building on the National Register of Historic Places, as well as the first performing arts venue in the country and the first building in Portland, to achieve a LEED Platinum rating. Portland Center Stage is committed to identifying and interrupting instances of racism and all forms of oppression, through the principles of inclusion, diversity, equity, and accessibility (IDEA).

🪩If we know anything about the Bennet family, it's that they spend a lot of time at balls. Like, A LOT of time. But in our production of Kate Hamill's adaptation of PRIDE AND PREJUDICE, choreographer Darrell Grand Moultrie is making sure Regency-era dance floor decorum gets a healthy injection of modern club culture (and it's already showing in rehearsal). Have we mentioned that Darrell, in addition to his many other impressive dance/choreography credits, has worked with both Beyoncé and Tony Award-winning tapper Savion Glover? The cast is in great hands!
Come dance it out with the Bennets at PRIDE AND PREJUDICE! Previews begin September 27. Tickets at pcs.org 🎟️
