Wherever you are
You Are HereĀ is a piece of documentary-style theatre that looks at Portland from within Portland, drawing on interviews with Portlanders of varying perspectives to highlight current stories of actual lived experience at a time when Portland has been a lightning rod in the news. In a highly collaborative process, three directors work together to present an extremely timely story told through language, design, and human expression. These artists are embracing the complexity of a rapidly shifting landscape to explore the possibilities of what can emerge artistically when the pressure is real. These pressures are cultural, social, racial, historical, and political. They are artistic and personal. They are temporal and spatial. What happens when a team of dedicated, curious theatre artists confront these pressures head on, and say You Are Here, right now?
