ART joins national Standing on Ceremony night to benefit BRO’s marriage equality work As the Occupy movement has shown over the last month, Americans’ willingness to stand up in solidarity for a common goal remains a criti cal foundation for equity. Count its theater hordes in on that equitable bent, too. Portland’s Artists Repertory Theatre will join 25 theaters in 19 states, and select international locales, for Standing on Ceremony—The Gay Marriage Plays. The project threads together nine 10-minute plays, written by a who’s who of scribes—including Tony Award nominees Moisés Kaufman and Neil LaBute—on issues surrounding gay mar riage. The short works are given the staged-reading treatment by per formers in participating cities... all at the same time. While the New York City producers of this thespian adventure have partnered with Freedom to Marry, proceeds from ART’s one-night- only engagement benefit Basic Rights Oregon, whose decision on whether or not to move forward with a ballot initiative to legalize gay marriage in 2012 is expected very soon. As a stipulation of being a partnering theater for Standing on Cere mony, each show is followed by a complimentary wedding cake recep tion, provided in Portland by Pastry Girls. And if you miss out on this scrumptious chance to square up marriage, he patient—ART plans a full run with revolving actors in the spring. Mon., Nov. 7, 7:30p.m.; Artists Repertory Theatre, Morrison Stage, 1515 SW Morrison St.; $50 in advance, $75 at door; 503-241-1278 or artistsrep.org. — R yan J.
