Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?
George and Martha have invited a young couple — Nick and Honey — over for a nightcap. As the drinks start flowing and skeletons claw their way out of their closets, the couples soon learn that marriage isn’t all fun and games. Hilarious and harrowing, one of the theater’s beloved classics, Edward Albee’s dark comedy is as fresh now as it was at its premiere more than 60 years ago.

Art Exhibit: Whilst We Peer Upon Thee by Latoya Lovely
Portland Center Stage will host Whilst We Peer Upon Thee, an art exhibit by Portland-based multidisciplinary artist Latoya Lovely. The exhibit is on display to view daily from March 8 – April 20, 2025.
The Light
Today should be the happiest day of Rashad and Genesis’ lives — he’s planned it all out — the perfect proposal before the perfect concert from the couple’s favorite artist. Things, however, almost never go as planned and when old secrets put their relationship at risk, they are forced to confront their commitment to each other and to justice. This intimate and moving play set amid the Kavanaugh hearings makes the political quite personal, in a real time rollercoaster ride of romance and reckoning.
