The 50th Season of the Portland Stage has begun! The Portland Stage is a non-profit theater company that puts on shows across Northern New England. This season is shaping up to be a memorable one. This season the lineup includes the following shows: Saint Dad, A Christmas Carol, The Play That Goes Wrong, What The Constitution Means To Me, Clyde’s, Angels In America Pt 1, and Manning. The Portland Stage hires the best crew and performers between auditioning in Portland and New York City. They are also committed to using actors from the Acrots Equality Association, the professional actors union. This not only helps them ensure they have professional actors but also protects the acting industry.
The 50th Season
50 Seasons is a big deal. Theater has been around longer than the written word, but for a company to celebrate 50 years in this industry is always a huge deal. Help them celebrate by buying tickets to a show this season and support this wonderful, non-profit company. Their mission is to create great art, passionately use theater to educate audiences, and enrich our community. Theater is an art that has struggled over the last 20 years. As the internet and streaming and all these new media delivery methods are developed, it’s important we remember where it all started.
They’ve also opened a new space for their performances, so even if you’ve seen them several times, it will feel new in their new Theater. They have continued to do well in ticket sales, so don’t wait to buy yours. Visit the Portland Stage Website to find a show that you’ll enjoy and get your tickets now.
