Here at Third Rail we’ve enjoyed the services of two magnificent dramaturgs, Brian Myers and Ellen Walkley, for several years. They’ve been with us since 2011 when they took over managing our NT Live program, and took over dramaturgical duties from Larkin Sackett (who ran off to a little school called Columbia University to pursue her MFA) […]

We’re in the last full week of September (already!?!) and there are still two ways to join us at the theatre before we turn the page into October. First – Or, is in full swing and audiences are having a fantastic 90 minutes! There’s poetry, espionage, laughter, sexy times, and cross-dressing (in both directions…)! The Oregonian says: […]
Or, Opens Tonight!
Join us on tonight, September 18, for the Opening Night of Or, by Liz Duffy Adams and help us kick off our Main Stage productions for the year.

September 14 – September 20, 2015

Don’t Miss The NT Live Encore Festival This Weekend!
