Steadfast and responsible, Ogun Size fights to connect with Oshoosi, his aimless younger brother, who has recently been released from prison. Weaving together the mundane and the mystic, this play invites us into the Louisiana Bayou, showing us a world of poetry, African mythology, and music.

Event Details
Join Festival Chorale Oregon for a concert of Magnificent Magnificats. The Magnificat (“My soul magnifies the Lord”) is one of the most ancient Christian hymns and has been set to music by numerous composers. This performance will present two of the most well-known versions. J.S. Bach’s Magnificat is considered one of the grandest illustrations of his genius and is one of his most popular vocal works. John Rutter’s Magnificat is a modern masterpiece that builds on the structure of Bach’s version while incorporating elements of Latin American music and that region’s jubilant celebration of Mary. Soloists Nicole Peldyak, Emily Evelyn Way, Hannah Penn, Les Green, and Brett Peldyak join the chorale and orchestra led by Founding Artistic Director Dr. Solveig Holmquist. Supported by a grant of Transient Occupancy Tax from the City of Salem.

Event Details
Oregon Repertory Singers audiences are well aware of the beauty and power of the music of Ēriks Ešenvalds. His setting of Sara Teasdale’s Stars for choir and tuned wine glasses, which ORS sings every year at Glory of Christmas, creates the indelible feeling of floating in the heavens surrounded by music. In 2012 ORS became the first American choir to host this inspiring composer for the United States premiere of Passion and Resurrection. In the years since, Ešenvalds has become one of the most prominent choral composers in the world. We are honored to host him in Portland again for the Northwest premieres of several of his major works including In Paradisum for choir, viola, and cello; Seneca’s Zodiac (on a text by the Roman Stoic poet); and three new works using texts by Oregon’s poet laureate emerita, Paulann Petersen.

He is sent to cover the annual Groundhog Day event in the small, isolated town of Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania. Accompanied by his producer Rita (Madison Curtis) and cameraman Larry (Keaton Fields), Phil discovers that he is seemingly destined to relive Groundhog Day in an endless loop, unless he finds a way to break the cycle. As each day unfolds in exactly the same manner, Phil grows increasingly despondent. Yet, is there a lesson to be learned through his experiences? Will he ever unlock the secret to breaking the cycle?

Music by Giacomo Puccini
Libretto by Luigi Illica and Giuseppe Giacosa
Giacomo Puccini’s melodrama returns to the McCaw Hall stage in a classic production that “has just about everything: great tunes, desperate lovers, loads of action, and a bad guy you’re going to love to hate” (The Seattle Times). Two lovers are thwarted by the power-hungry Scarpia while the fiery prima donna Tosca is pushed past sanity when her only hope for freedom means submitting to the evil Baron’s lecherous desires.
“Vocally perfect” (Broadway World) soprano Vanessa Goikoetxea (Alcina ’23, Don Giovanni ’21, Carmen ’19) and the “gleaming soprano” (Opera Warhorses) of Lianna Haroutounian (Madame Butterfly ’17) return to McCaw Hall as Floria Tosca. As Cavaradossi, the “warm, rich tenor” (Bachtrack) of Rame Lahaj alternates with “ardent tenor and an impassioned actor” (The Seattle Times) Yonghoon Lee, who returns to Seattle after his debut as Samson (Samson and Delilah in Concert ’23).

Premiered in 1925, The Gold Rush is considered Chaplin’s greatest silent film, and made him an international star. Set in the 1890’s Alaskan Klondike Gold Rush, Chaplin is a poor, lonely prospector, who ventures north in hope of finding fortune. Through his comedic adventures he fights villains, falls in love with a beautiful girl, strikes it rich, and sails home from Alaska, a millionaire!

Event Details
Oregon Repertory Singers audiences are well aware of the beauty and power of the music of Ēriks Ešenvalds. His setting of Sara Teasdale’s Stars for choir and tuned wine glasses, which ORS sings every year at Glory of Christmas, creates the indelible feeling of floating in the heavens surrounded by music. In 2012 ORS became the first American choir to host this inspiring composer for the United States premiere of Passion and Resurrection. In the years since, Ešenvalds has become one of the most prominent choral composers in the world. We are honored to host him in Portland again for the Northwest premieres of several of his major works including In Paradisum for choir, viola, and cello; Seneca’s Zodiac (on a text by the Roman Stoic poet); and three new works using texts by Oregon’s poet laureate emerita, Paulann Petersen.

Get ready to dive into the intense emotions of Robert Schumann’s Manfred Overture. Based on a poem by Lord Byron, you’ll feel the great suffering from supernatural forces that he detailed in his dramatic 1817 work.
Then, experience the resilience in Ruth Gipps’s Second Symphony, written during WWII. Reflecting its time, this symphony is like a musical journey from struggle to triumph that leaves you feeling hopeful and strong.
Valerie Coleman’s Tracing Visions is powerful and thought-provoking, addressing the ugliness of hatred of apathy and violence and means to reinforce the profound truth that we are all one people and should strive to create a safe and compassionate world.
Finally, Dmitri Shostakovich’s Piano Concerto No. 2, featuring young pianist Hansen Barrett, feels like a burst of sunshine with its cheerful melodies, like the light at the end of the tunnel after so much grief.
It is a program to inspire — to move and encourage us all to continue in our search for beauty and hope.

Program:
Mendelssohn: Athalia Overture
Barber: Violin Concerto – Guest Artist Anthea Kreston
Holst: The Planets
Pre-concert talk by Director, Jonathan DeBruyn 3PM
The Planets is a brilliant and dramatic symphony with movements representing all the known planets at the time it was written. It’s an ambitious masterpiece requiring many instruments including 6 timpani, 2 harps, celeste, numerous percussion, horns, woodwinds, strings, and a female choir for Neptune – the Mystic, the last haunting movement.
In a search for a female treble chorus, Sunnyside Symphony Orchestra Director, Jonathan DeBruyn heard recordings of Pride of Portland (PoP) Sweet Adelines chorus, and reached out to its Director, Drew Osterhout. PoP is an a capella chorus performing close four-part harmony primarily in the barbershop style. The clear, careful vocalization was what Jonathan was looking for. Although a step out of their comfort zone, Drew jumped at the chance for an exciting musical adventure. While Jonathan was busy finding instrumentalists to fill the orchestration, Drew reached out to various community choruses for more soprano and alto singers, building a PoP and Friends chorus.
The Planets requires the chorus to be off-stage while singing to give the feeling of angelic voices. This means also finding a way to coordinate the two directors during the piece as well as figure out how to fit all the instruments on the stage.
This truly ambitious concert will also include the Violin Concerto by Samuel Barber with Guest Artist, Anthea Kreston, the terrific first violin of Oregon’s renowned Delgani Quartet.

Libretto by Luigi Illica and Giuseppe Giacosa
Giacomo Puccini’s melodrama returns to the McCaw Hall stage in a classic production that “has just about everything: great tunes, desperate lovers, loads of action, and a bad guy you’re going to love to hate” (The Seattle Times). Two lovers are thwarted by the power-hungry Scarpia while the fiery prima donna Tosca is pushed past sanity when her only hope for freedom means submitting to the evil Baron’s lecherous desires.
“Vocally perfect” (Broadway World) soprano Vanessa Goikoetxea (Alcina ’23, Don Giovanni ’21, Carmen ’19) and the “gleaming soprano” (Opera Warhorses) of Lianna Haroutounian (Madame Butterfly ’17) return to McCaw Hall as Floria Tosca. As Cavaradossi, the “warm, rich tenor” (Bachtrack) of Rame Lahaj alternates with “ardent tenor and an impassioned actor” (The Seattle Times) Yonghoon Lee, who returns to Seattle after his debut as Samson (Samson and Delilah in Concert ’23).

Event Details
Percussion is the oldest kind of musical instrument, dating back to the dawn of time when the earliest humans found themselves captivated by the noises made when they hit one object with another. Over the centuries, the ‘percussion section’ has been augmented with other objects that are not music instruments, but can be used to make music—Tchaikovsky’s cannons (1812 Overture), Verdi’s anvils (Il Trovatore), and Mahler’s DIY hammer blow (Symphony No. 6). More recently, composers also used new technology—analog recordings in the musique concrete of the 1940s, and sampling and synthesis starting in the 1980s—to bring sounds found in the wider world into the concert hall. With such a rich and diverse tradition as our touchstone, we’re sure you’ll find this concert makes a glorious noise that is exciting, thought-provoking…and fun. Join us!

Music by Giacomo Puccini
Libretto by Luigi Illica and Giuseppe Giacosa
Giacomo Puccini’s melodrama returns to the McCaw Hall stage in a classic production that “has just about everything: great tunes, desperate lovers, loads of action, and a bad guy you’re going to love to hate” (The Seattle Times). Two lovers are thwarted by the power-hungry Scarpia while the fiery prima donna Tosca is pushed past sanity when her only hope for freedom means submitting to the evil Baron’s lecherous desires.
“Vocally perfect” (Broadway World) soprano Vanessa Goikoetxea (Alcina ’23, Don Giovanni ’21, Carmen ’19) and the “gleaming soprano” (Opera Warhorses) of Lianna Haroutounian (Madame Butterfly ’17) return to McCaw Hall as Floria Tosca. As Cavaradossi, the “warm, rich tenor” (Bachtrack) of Rame Lahaj alternates with “ardent tenor and an impassioned actor” (The Seattle Times) Yonghoon Lee, who returns to Seattle after his debut as Samson (Samson and Delilah in Concert ’23).

Groundhog Day: The Musical tells the tale of Phil Connors (Travis Bilenski), a cynical TV weatherman from Pittsburgh. He is sent to cover the annual Groundhog Day event in the small, isolated town of Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania. Accompanied by his producer Rita (Madison Curtis) and cameraman Larry (Keaton Fields), Phil discovers that he is seemingly destined to relive Groundhog Day in an endless loop, unless he finds a way to break the cycle. As each day unfolds in exactly the same manner, Phil grows increasingly despondent. Yet, is there a lesson to be learned through his experiences? Will he ever unlock the secret to breaking the cycle?

Event Details
In Giuseppe Verdi’s final opera, inspired by Shakespeare’s Henry IV and The Merry Wives of Windsor, the charismatic (but bankrupt) Sir John Falstaff conspires to seduce two wealthy married women.
After sending identical love letters, Falstaff’s flimsy plan is foiled; Alice Ford and Meg Page hatch a scheme of their own to expose him.
Portland Opera’s unique take on this classic finds our hero traipsing about a 1980s Country Club, brought to life with vivid projections and colorful costumes.
Merriment and mischief are at the heart of the tale as this beloved buffoon endures mishaps and deceptions, ultimately discovering his humility.
With bright and lively melodies and unparalleled polyphonic arrangements, this exuberant masterpiece is widely considered one of the best comedic operas ever written.
Cost: $25 – $150

Coastal Voices, the 55-voice premier vocal ensemble of the central Oregon coast, presents their spring 2025 concert series “Americana Adventure: Best Foot Forward.” Part I celebrates classic Americana with rhythmic renditions of familiar songs like “Skip to My Lou” and “I Bought Me a Cat,” followed by a nod to sacred traditional works such as “Down In the River to Pray” and the Shaker hymn “Gentle Words.” An audience sing-along follows the intermission (lyrics to folk songs provided.)
Part II showcases modern Americana. Selections including “Animal Crackers,” whimsical poetry by Ogden Nash set to music by Eric Whitacre, and “The Marvelous Toy” by Tom Paxton, appeal to young and old alike. The salute to modern American composers continues with choral versions of “Over the Rainbow” and “Bridge Over Troubled Waters” among others. SoundWaves, the small ensemble drawn from the choir, performs several pieces.

In a tour-de-force one-person farce that The Guardian describes as “mind and character bending,” Asian American actor and comedian Chris Grace explores the bounds of an artist’s identity. With the help of an ever-growing pile of wigs, Chris Grace: As Scarlett Johansson celebrates two of Hollywood’s most beloved Asian actors.

Chris Grace is Scarlett Johansson. Or maybe Scarlett Johansson is Chris Grace. Either way, only one of them played a Japanese cyborg in Ghost in the Shell. In a tour-de-force one-person farce that The Guardian describes as “mind and character bending,” Asian American actor and comedian Chris Grace explores the bounds of an artist’s identity. With the help of an ever-growing pile of wigs, Chris Grace: As Scarlett Johansson celebrates two of Hollywood’s most beloved Asian actors.

Music by Giacomo Puccini
Libretto by Luigi Illica and Giuseppe Giacosa
Giacomo Puccini’s melodrama returns to the McCaw Hall stage in a classic production that “has just about everything: great tunes, desperate lovers, loads of action, and a bad guy you’re going to love to hate” (The Seattle Times). Two lovers are thwarted by the power-hungry Scarpia while the fiery prima donna Tosca is pushed past sanity when her only hope for freedom means submitting to the evil Baron’s lecherous desires.
“Vocally perfect” (Broadway World) soprano Vanessa Goikoetxea (Alcina ’23, Don Giovanni ’21, Carmen ’19) and the “gleaming soprano” (Opera Warhorses) of Lianna Haroutounian (Madame Butterfly ’17) return to McCaw Hall as Floria Tosca. As Cavaradossi, the “warm, rich tenor” (Bachtrack) of Rame Lahaj alternates with “ardent tenor and an impassioned actor” (The Seattle Times) Yonghoon Lee, who returns to Seattle after his debut as Samson (Samson and Delilah in Concert ’23).

Groundhog Day: The Musical tells the tale of Phil Connors (Travis Bilenski), a cynical TV weatherman from Pittsburgh. He is sent to cover the annual Groundhog Day event in the small, isolated town of Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania. Accompanied by his producer Rita (Madison Curtis) and cameraman Larry (Keaton Fields), Phil discovers that he is seemingly destined to relive Groundhog Day in an endless loop, unless he finds a way to break the cycle. As each day unfolds in exactly the same manner, Phil grows increasingly despondent. Yet, is there a lesson to be learned through his experiences? Will he ever unlock the secret to breaking the cycle?

In Giuseppe Verdi’s final opera, inspired by Shakespeare’s Henry IV and The Merry Wives of Windsor, the charismatic (but bankrupt) Sir John Falstaff conspires to seduce two wealthy married women.
After sending identical love letters, Falstaff’s flimsy plan is foiled; Alice Ford and Meg Page hatch a scheme of their own to expose him.
Portland Opera’s unique take on this classic finds our hero traipsing about a 1980s Country Club, brought to life with vivid projections and colorful costumes.
Merriment and mischief are at the heart of the tale as this beloved buffoon endures mishaps and deceptions, ultimately discovering his humility.
With bright and lively melodies and unparalleled polyphonic arrangements, this exuberant masterpiece is widely considered one of the best comedic operas ever written.
Cost: $25 – $150

Groundhog Day: The Musical tells the tale of Phil Connors (Travis Bilenski), a cynical TV weatherman from Pittsburgh. He is sent to cover the annual Groundhog Day event in the small, isolated town of Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania. Accompanied by his producer Rita (Madison Curtis) and cameraman Larry (Keaton Fields), Phil discovers that he is seemingly destined to relive Groundhog Day in an endless loop, unless he finds a way to break the cycle. As each day unfolds in exactly the same manner, Phil grows increasingly despondent. Yet, is there a lesson to be learned through his experiences? Will he ever unlock the secret to breaking the cycle?

If there’s anyone who understands where hysteria and hysterical meet, it’s Imago Theatre’s absurdist auteur Carol Triffle. And that crazy common ground of hilarity and despair has never been as strikingly apparent as it is in her newest work, Happyness (TheWrecking Ball). If you’ve been paying attention to Imago since the pandemic, then you’ll know that Triffle has, in recent years, been slyly satirizing American culture via a series of wildly entertaining alt-rock farces. Her Where’s Bruno? (2023) cleverly lampooned the fame game and spiritual psychobabble; her Mission Gibbons (2024) was a witty, sci-fi send-up of our collective response to the climate crisis. Indeed, her ability to find humor despite a looming apocalypse suggests that perhaps Hollywood escapism has lost its effectiveness. We’d be wiser to confront reality head on and see how ridiculous humanity is. With the war-torn world of Happyness (TheWrecking Ball), our ability to laugh in defiance of destitution may be our key to long-term survival. Well, that and a sock puppet who recognizes a catchy tune.

Music by Giacomo Puccini
Libretto by Luigi Illica and Giuseppe Giacosa
Giacomo Puccini’s melodrama returns to the McCaw Hall stage in a classic production that “has just about everything: great tunes, desperate lovers, loads of action, and a bad guy you’re going to love to hate” (The Seattle Times). Two lovers are thwarted by the power-hungry Scarpia while the fiery prima donna Tosca is pushed past sanity when her only hope for freedom means submitting to the evil Baron’s lecherous desires.
“Vocally perfect” (Broadway World) soprano Vanessa Goikoetxea (Alcina ’23, Don Giovanni ’21, Carmen ’19) and the “gleaming soprano” (Opera Warhorses) of Lianna Haroutounian (Madame Butterfly ’17) return to McCaw Hall as Floria Tosca. As Cavaradossi, the “warm, rich tenor” (Bachtrack) of Rame Lahaj alternates with “ardent tenor and an impassioned actor” (The Seattle Times) Yonghoon Lee, who returns to Seattle after his debut as Samson (Samson and Delilah in Concert ’23).

Chris Grace is Scarlett Johansson. Or maybe Scarlett Johansson is Chris Grace. Either way, only one of them played a Japanese cyborg in Ghost in the Shell. In a tour-de-force one-person farce that The Guardian describes as “mind and character bending,” Asian American actor and comedian Chris Grace explores the bounds of an artist’s identity. With the help of an ever-growing pile of wigs, Chris Grace: As Scarlett Johansson celebrates two of Hollywood’s most beloved Asian actors.

Chris Grace is Scarlett Johansson. Or maybe Scarlett Johansson is Chris Grace. Either way, only one of them played a Japanese cyborg in Ghost in the Shell. In a tour-de-force one-person farce that The Guardian describes as “mind and character bending,” Asian American actor and comedian Chris Grace explores the bounds of an artist’s identity. With the help of an ever-growing pile of wigs, Chris Grace: As Scarlett Johansson celebrates two of Hollywood’s most beloved Asian actors.

Event Details
In Giuseppe Verdi’s final opera, inspired by Shakespeare’s Henry IV and The Merry Wives of Windsor, the charismatic (but bankrupt) Sir John Falstaff conspires to seduce two wealthy married women.
After sending identical love letters, Falstaff’s flimsy plan is foiled; Alice Ford and Meg Page hatch a scheme of their own to expose him.
Portland Opera’s unique take on this classic finds our hero traipsing about a 1980s Country Club, brought to life with vivid projections and colorful costumes.
Merriment and mischief are at the heart of the tale as this beloved buffoon endures mishaps and deceptions, ultimately discovering his humility.
With bright and lively melodies and unparalleled polyphonic arrangements, this exuberant masterpiece is widely considered one of the best comedic operas ever written.
Cost: $25 – $150

Groundhog Day: The Musical tells the tale of Phil Connors (Travis Bilenski), a cynical TV weatherman from Pittsburgh. He is sent to cover the annual Groundhog Day event in the small, isolated town of Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania. Accompanied by his producer Rita (Madison Curtis) and cameraman Larry (Keaton Fields), Phil discovers that he is seemingly destined to relive Groundhog Day in an endless loop, unless he finds a way to break the cycle. As each day unfolds in exactly the same manner, Phil grows increasingly despondent. Yet, is there a lesson to be learned through his experiences? Will he ever unlock the secret to breaking the cycle?

If there’s anyone who understands where hysteria and hysterical meet, it’s Imago Theatre’s absurdist auteur Carol Triffle. And that crazy common ground of hilarity and despair has never been as strikingly apparent as it is in her newest work, Happyness (TheWrecking Ball). If you’ve been paying attention to Imago since the pandemic, then you’ll know that Triffle has, in recent years, been slyly satirizing American culture via a series of wildly entertaining alt-rock farces. Her Where’s Bruno? (2023) cleverly lampooned the fame game and spiritual psychobabble; her Mission Gibbons (2024) was a witty, sci-fi send-up of our collective response to the climate crisis. Indeed, her ability to find humor despite a looming apocalypse suggests that perhaps Hollywood escapism has lost its effectiveness. We’d be wiser to confront reality head on and see how ridiculous humanity is. With the war-torn world of Happyness (TheWrecking Ball), our ability to laugh in defiance of destitution may be our key to long-term survival. Well, that and a sock puppet who recognizes a catchy tune.

Chris Grace is Scarlett Johansson. Or maybe Scarlett Johansson is Chris Grace. Either way, only one of them played a Japanese cyborg in Ghost in the Shell. In a tour-de-force one-person farce that The Guardian describes as “mind and character bending,” Asian American actor and comedian Chris Grace explores the bounds of an artist’s identity. With the help of an ever-growing pile of wigs, Chris Grace: As Scarlett Johansson celebrates two of Hollywood’s most beloved Asian actors.

Groundhog Day: The Musical tells the tale of Phil Connors (Travis Bilenski), a cynical TV weatherman from Pittsburgh. He is sent to cover the annual Groundhog Day event in the small, isolated town of Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania. Accompanied by his producer Rita (Madison Curtis) and cameraman Larry (Keaton Fields), Phil discovers that he is seemingly destined to relive Groundhog Day in an endless loop, unless he finds a way to break the cycle. As each day unfolds in exactly the same manner, Phil grows increasingly despondent. Yet, is there a lesson to be learned through his experiences? Will he ever unlock the secret to breaking the cycle?

If there’s anyone who understands where hysteria and hysterical meet, it’s Imago Theatre’s absurdist auteur Carol Triffle. And that crazy common ground of hilarity and despair has never been as strikingly apparent as it is in her newest work, Happyness (TheWrecking Ball). If you’ve been paying attention to Imago since the pandemic, then you’ll know that Triffle has, in recent years, been slyly satirizing American culture via a series of wildly entertaining alt-rock farces. Her Where’s Bruno? (2023) cleverly lampooned the fame game and spiritual psychobabble; her Mission Gibbons (2024) was a witty, sci-fi send-up of our collective response to the climate crisis. Indeed, her ability to find humor despite a looming apocalypse suggests that perhaps Hollywood escapism has lost its effectiveness. We’d be wiser to confront reality head on and see how ridiculous humanity is. With the war-torn world of Happyness (TheWrecking Ball), our ability to laugh in defiance of destitution may be our key to long-term survival. Well, that and a sock puppet who recognizes a catchy tune.

Groundhog Day: The Musical tells the tale of Phil Connors (Travis Bilenski), a cynical TV weatherman from Pittsburgh. He is sent to cover the annual Groundhog Day event in the small, isolated town of Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania. Accompanied by his producer Rita (Madison Curtis) and cameraman Larry (Keaton Fields), Phil discovers that he is seemingly destined to relive Groundhog Day in an endless loop, unless he finds a way to break the cycle. As each day unfolds in exactly the same manner, Phil grows increasingly despondent. Yet, is there a lesson to be learned through his experiences? Will he ever unlock the secret to breaking the cycle?

If there’s anyone who understands where hysteria and hysterical meet, it’s Imago Theatre’s absurdist auteur Carol Triffle. And that crazy common ground of hilarity and despair has never been as strikingly apparent as it is in her newest work, Happyness (TheWrecking Ball). If you’ve been paying attention to Imago since the pandemic, then you’ll know that Triffle has, in recent years, been slyly satirizing American culture via a series of wildly entertaining alt-rock farces. Her Where’s Bruno? (2023) cleverly lampooned the fame game and spiritual psychobabble; her Mission Gibbons (2024) was a witty, sci-fi send-up of our collective response to the climate crisis. Indeed, her ability to find humor despite a looming apocalypse suggests that perhaps Hollywood escapism has lost its effectiveness. We’d be wiser to confront reality head on and see how ridiculous humanity is. With the war-torn world of Happyness (TheWrecking Ball), our ability to laugh in defiance of destitution may be our key to long-term survival. Well, that and a sock puppet who recognizes a catchy tune.

A Midsummer Night’s Dream
Shakespeare’s iconic comedy and one of his most popular and widely performed plays, A Midsummer Night’s Dream, gets a contemporary treatment from Spanish choreographer and former Luna Negra Artistic Director, Gustavo Ramírez Sansano, with help from his award-winning set designer friend and fellow Spanish artist Luis Crespo, who previously created the set’s for Ihsan Rustem’s remarkable Carmen, and NW Dance Project Artistic Director Sarah Slipper’s full evening work, Hedda, which was performed in Portland in late March (2025). Regarding the sets, Oregon Arts Watch noted “a striking, minimalist contemporary living room designed by set designer Luis Crespo. This space perfectly balanced light and dark, elegance and tension, creating dramatic contrasts with flair…The overall image was crisp, featuring clean lines and deliberate contrasts, offering no unnecessary distractions, only the essentials.”
Piaf
Acclaimed international dance-maker Ihsan Rustem returns to the company that provided him with his first commissioned work for his 14th creation for NW Dance Project. Completely inspired by and featuring the unmistakable music and voice of French songbird Edith Piaf, who would have turned 110 this year, Ihsan’s movement and series of lyrical vignettes serve as homage to the music of France’s greatest popular singer, and nothing more. Usually known for his sweeping narrative works brimming with tension and focus, this time around he’s jumping headlong into the music to lead and shape the movement.

A Midsummer Night’s Dream
Shakespeare’s iconic comedy and one of his most popular and widely performed plays, A Midsummer Night’s Dream, gets a contemporary treatment from Spanish choreographer and former Luna Negra Artistic Director, Gustavo Ramírez Sansano, with help from his award-winning set designer friend and fellow Spanish artist Luis Crespo, who previously created the set’s for Ihsan Rustem’s remarkable Carmen, and NW Dance Project Artistic Director Sarah Slipper’s full evening work, Hedda, which was performed in Portland in late March (2025). Regarding the sets, Oregon Arts Watch noted “a striking, minimalist contemporary living room designed by set designer Luis Crespo. This space perfectly balanced light and dark, elegance and tension, creating dramatic contrasts with flair…The overall image was crisp, featuring clean lines and deliberate contrasts, offering no unnecessary distractions, only the essentials.”
Piaf
Acclaimed international dance-maker Ihsan Rustem returns to the company that provided him with his first commissioned work for his 14th creation for NW Dance Project. Completely inspired by and featuring the unmistakable music and voice of French songbird Edith Piaf, who would have turned 110 this year, Ihsan’s movement and series of lyrical vignettes serve as homage to the music of France’s greatest popular singer, and nothing more. Usually known for his sweeping narrative works brimming with tension and focus, this time around he’s jumping headlong into the music to lead and shape the movement.

A CMNW & PORTLAND JAPANESE GARDEN COLLABORATION
Inspired by autobiographical accounts of the incarceration of Japanese-American citizens in World War II, Lost Freedom: A Memory weaves together music and spoken word in a profound exploration of a chilling time in American history. Actor, author, and activist, George Takei (Star Trek), narrates his own story as one of the citizens forced from their homes and made to live in desolate camps thousands of miles away. Set to music by Oregon composer Kenji Bunch, this poignant program will also include music by Oregon’s Japanese-American composer/percussionist Andy Akiho.
Lost Freedom: A Memory is a co-presentation with Portland Japanese Garden, and is part of a weekend-long festival remembering and celebrating the rich legacies of Portland’s Japanese and Vanport communities through visual art, music, theater, and dance, in collaboration with the Japanese American Museum of Oregon, Resonance Ensemble, and The Vanport Mosaic.
NOTE: Lost Freedom: A Memory is not currently on sale. CMNW subscribers and Portland Japanese Garden members will receive a special invitation to purchase tickets at a later date. To receive this priority invitation, please purchase a subscription for our 2024/25 Season.

If there’s anyone who understands where hysteria and hysterical meet, it’s Imago Theatre’s absurdist auteur Carol Triffle. And that crazy common ground of hilarity and despair has never been as strikingly apparent as it is in her newest work, Happyness (TheWrecking Ball). If you’ve been paying attention to Imago since the pandemic, then you’ll know that Triffle has, in recent years, been slyly satirizing American culture via a series of wildly entertaining alt-rock farces. Her Where’s Bruno? (2023) cleverly lampooned the fame game and spiritual psychobabble; her Mission Gibbons (2024) was a witty, sci-fi send-up of our collective response to the climate crisis. Indeed, her ability to find humor despite a looming apocalypse suggests that perhaps Hollywood escapism has lost its effectiveness. We’d be wiser to confront reality head on and see how ridiculous humanity is. With the war-torn world of Happyness (TheWrecking Ball), our ability to laugh in defiance of destitution may be our key to long-term survival. Well, that and a sock puppet who recognizes a catchy tune.

Light Opera of Portland (LOoP) is thrilled to announce its upcoming production of the charming and witty opera, “Patience,” by the iconic duo Gilbert and Sullivan. This delightful performance will take the stage at the Portland’5 Brunish Theatre May 30–June 15, offering audiences an unforgettable experience filled with humor, satire, and whimsical music.
“Patience,” first performed in 1881, is a comedic opera that cleverly critiques the aesthetic art movement, fads, fashions, and superfans, and the nature of romantic love. Set in a fictional English village, the story follows the antics of the poet Bunthorne, the milkmaid Patience, and a host of lovesick maidens. With its clever libretto and catchy melodies, “Patience” remains a favorite among Gilbert and Sullivan enthusiasts and newcomers alike.
Light Opera of Portland is proud to feature a talented cast and crew who bring this production to life with energy and authenticity. Under the skilled direction of Artistic Director Laurence Cox, and with musical direction by Josh Pounders, audiences can expect a vibrant and polished performance that honors the spirit of Gilbert and Sullivan’s original work.

He is sent to cover the annual Groundhog Day event in the small, isolated town of Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania. Accompanied by his producer Rita (Madison Curtis) and cameraman Larry (Keaton Fields), Phil discovers that he is seemingly destined to relive Groundhog Day in an endless loop, unless he finds a way to break the cycle.

Light Opera of Portland (LOoP) is thrilled to announce its upcoming production of the charming and witty opera, “Patience,” by the iconic duo Gilbert and Sullivan. This delightful performance will take the stage at the Portland’5 Brunish Theatre May 30–June 15, offering audiences an unforgettable experience filled with humor, satire, and whimsical music.
“Patience,” first performed in 1881, is a comedic opera that cleverly critiques the aesthetic art movement, fads, fashions, and superfans, and the nature of romantic love. Set in a fictional English village, the story follows the antics of the poet Bunthorne, the milkmaid Patience, and a host of lovesick maidens. With its clever libretto and catchy melodies, “Patience” remains a favorite among Gilbert and Sullivan enthusiasts and newcomers alike.
Light Opera of Portland is proud to feature a talented cast and crew who bring this production to life with energy and authenticity. Under the skilled direction of Artistic Director Laurence Cox, and with musical direction by Josh Pounders, audiences can expect a vibrant and polished performance that honors the spirit of Gilbert and Sullivan’s original work.
Cost: $25 – $30

Light Opera of Portland (LOoP) is thrilled to announce its upcoming production of the charming and witty opera, “Patience,” by the iconic duo Gilbert and Sullivan. This delightful performance will take the stage at the Portland’5 Brunish Theatre May 30–June 15, offering audiences an unforgettable experience filled with humor, satire, and whimsical music.
“Patience,” first performed in 1881, is a comedic opera that cleverly critiques the aesthetic art movement, fads, fashions, and superfans, and the nature of romantic love. Set in a fictional English village, the story follows the antics of the poet Bunthorne, the milkmaid Patience, and a host of lovesick maidens. With its clever libretto and catchy melodies, “Patience” remains a favorite among Gilbert and Sullivan enthusiasts and newcomers alike.
Light Opera of Portland is proud to feature a talented cast and crew who bring this production to life with energy and authenticity. Under the skilled direction of Artistic Director Laurence Cox, and with musical direction by Josh Pounders, audiences can expect a vibrant and polished performance that honors the spirit of Gilbert and Sullivan’s original work.
Cost: $25 – $30

Light Opera of Portland (LOoP) is thrilled to announce its upcoming production of the charming and witty opera, “Patience,” by the iconic duo Gilbert and Sullivan. This delightful performance will take the stage at the Portland’5 Brunish Theatre May 30–June 15, offering audiences an unforgettable experience filled with humor, satire, and whimsical music.
“Patience,” first performed in 1881, is a comedic opera that cleverly critiques the aesthetic art movement, fads, fashions, and superfans, and the nature of romantic love. Set in a fictional English village, the story follows the antics of the poet Bunthorne, the milkmaid Patience, and a host of lovesick maidens. With its clever libretto and catchy melodies, “Patience” remains a favorite among Gilbert and Sullivan enthusiasts and newcomers alike.
Light Opera of Portland is proud to feature a talented cast and crew who bring this production to life with energy and authenticity. Under the skilled direction of Artistic Director Laurence Cox, and with musical direction by Josh Pounders, audiences can expect a vibrant and polished performance that honors the spirit of Gilbert and Sullivan’s original work.
Cost: $25 – $30

“In it the whole of nature finds a voice,” Mahler wrote of his Third Symphony. A work of immense scope and profound emotion in which the composer realizes his goal to “embrace everything” in his music, Mahler’s Third is an expansive hymn to the primal life force that animates every flower in the meadow, animal in the forest, and the divine love that forever unites nature and humankind.

MYS is proud to welcome barrier-breaking five-time Grammy winner and Portland native esperanza spalding for its season finale.
MYS is commissioning a piece by esperanza spalding for bass, voice, and symphony, exploring the connection between the land and spirit. esperanza will perform the new work with MYS Symphony Orchestra and jazz students, along with Ebony and Ivy by esperanza spalding, and Midnight in Carlotta’s Hair by the great Wayne Shorter.
In honor of another barrier breaker, MYS will perform Florence Price’s Symphony No. 4, one of her most substantial symphonies. Composed in 1945, this work was never performed during Price’s life and was presumed lost until 2009, when it was rediscovered in her former summer home in Illinois. Price’s Symphony No. 4 received its world premiere by the Fort Smith Symphony on May 12, 2018.
MYS is no stranger to Price’s work. In 2019, Symphony Orchestra performed the U.S. West Coast premiere of Price’s Symphony No. 1, and took this piece abroad in Italy and Austria as part of its international tour that same summer.
Portland Overture Strings will also perform.

Get ready for an adrenaline-pumping, genre-bending cinematic spectacle like no other! “Turkish Rambo”, a live film and music performance, storms the screen and stage June 27-28 at Portland’s historic Hollywood Theatre.
This audacious event brings the infamous cult classic Rampage (Korkusuz)—affectionately known as “Turkish Rambo”—to vivid new life with an original score by Portland-based composer Justin Ralls, performed live by an all-star lineup of some of Portland’s finest musicians. Adding another layer of immersive fun, the performance features live voice acting and Foley sound effects, transporting audiences into the heart of this over-the-top action extravaganza.
Directed by Çetin İnanç and starring Serdar Kebapçılar as a one-man army of vengeance, Turkish Rambo has achieved legendary status for its DIY stunts, wild edits, and unrelenting action. This unique live performance turns the cult chaos into an art form—equal parts homage, satire, and cinematic love letter.

Event Details
Scipio’s Dream is inspired by Cicero’s tale of a Roman general who dreams he has awakened in the heavens. He is greeted by the goddesses Fortuna (Fortune) and Costanza (Constancy), who urge him to follow their path. One promises luck, wealth, and pleasure, and the other champions truth, determination, and virtue. As Mozart’s sublime arias fill the celestial realm, Scipio is visited by the spirit of his grandfather and a chorus of noble heroes. Together, they help him find the strength to shape his destiny.
Mozart composed this opera in 1771, when he was only 15 years old. It likely wasn’t performed in his lifetime, and it’s still a rare treat to experience live—partly because the arias are so challenging. Christopher Alden’s production brings the fun, high energy elements of a comedic romp to the story, while giving the masterful music its due. It was originally produced in New York City by Gotham Chamber Opera to rave reviews.
Cost: $50-$110

Jacqueline is a new opera about legendary cellist Jacqueline du Pré. A musical maverick, du Pré captivated audiences with her passionate playing and radiant charisma. By the age of 20, she was performing with the world’s finest orchestras. When she married conductor and pianist Daniel Barenboim, the dazzling couple became the Jackie and JFK of the classical world. Yet in 1971, du Pré began to lose feeling in her fingers. This opera portrays her journey with multiple sclerosis, illuminated by an emotional score that draws audiences into the soul of an artist whose music and spirit continue to resonate.
Composer Luna Pearl Woolf wrote Jacqueline specifically for celebrated soprano Marnie Breckenridge and renowned cellist Matt Haimovitz—who was du Pré’s protégé. These virtuosic artists revive their acclaimed performances in Portland. The opera had its world premiere at Tapestry Opera in Canada in 2020, earning rave reviews and five DORA award nominations. It was such a hit that the company reprised it two years later. Portland will be the third city to experience its magic.
Cost: $25-$110
