Program areas at Portland Stage Company

Portland Stage is a hub of creative activity connecting our community to outstanding theatrical experiences. Through our mainstage shows, acclaimed new work initiatives and education programs, we provide a diverse range of productions and programs that challenge thinking and promote empathy, investing in the future of our art form. During the pandemic, we've found successful methods to continue creating and connecting with our audience. The 2021-22 season included: eight live mainstage productions that were also available in a virtual format; several new play development reading/workshops; and education programs engaging nearly 4,000 students and over 200 teachers. We believe that theater is about inclusivity; it is about opening ourselves to see the world from another person's perspective; it is about building community. Our board and staff are currently developing a new strategic plan that supports our goal of inclusivity and anti-racism, in addition to working toward the completion of a $6m+ capital campaign focused on accessibility and visibility.
