This immersive Shakespeare production traveling through the entire Armory lobby brings together the vaulting ceilings and balconies of our two-story lobby, stylized puppetry and paper-craft props, and the absurdism of British humorist skits as we follow Prince Pericles on a journey through the seven seas in search of love and fortune.

The Immigrant Story Live at Portland Center Stage
Join us for an evening of impactful stories and joyful music from Oregonians who share the places they’ve built, the traditions they’ve carried, and what it means to truly belong.

Together, we create a home where everyone belongs, no matter where we came from or the journey that brought us here.
