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.
