Experience the Portland Theatre Brigade

Make way for the Portland Theatre Brigade! Make way!

So begins every performance, by this group of vibrant young people who act, joke, shout, move, drum, and dance their way through stories bringing laughter and inspiration.

The Brigade presents collections of short plays. The young members find folk stories from around the world, and then write scripts adapting them to the stage. Each play is performed in a unique style - scripted, improvised, danced, sung, and each filled with zany and touching characters.

Our performing season is March through June. We start booking the fall for the following spring, so contact us right away to schedule. Performances for schools and community groups are FREE. Get more information
