Actress Chantal DeGroat of the TV series “Grimm,” which was filmed in Portland, and a favorite
actress reigning from Portland and Seattle, stars in the current production of “Macbeth” at Portland
Center Stage at The Armory.
Women Get Their Due
This fall, local favorites Chan-
tal DeGroat, Dana Green, and
Lauren Bloom Hanover star in a
piercing, stripped-down produc-
tion of Macbeth at Portland Center
Stage at The Armory.
With an edited script and origi-
nal music, Shakespeare’s infamous
tale of political gluttony and super-
natural vengeance finds refreshing
new life in a thrilling adaptation
The New York Times called, “tran-
scendent.” DeGroat, Green, and
Hanover tackle all the roles, with
captivating shape-note singing
lending a haunting soundtrack to
the rise and fall of Scotland’s most
notorious royal assassin.
The Armory will host various
free pre- and post-show commu-
nity events in conjunction with the
show, including discussions with
cast, crew and community guests.
Preview performances are
underway and opening night is
Friday, Oct. 4. Shows continue
through Nov. 24. Purchase tickets
at pcs.org, by phone at 503-445-
3700 or in-person from the box
office at 128 N.W. 11th Ave.
Keb’ Mo’ at Revolution Hall
Blues musician and four-time
Grammy Award winner Keb’ Mo’ re-
turns to Portland for a Friday, Oct. 4
concert at Revolution Hall, the former
Washington High School auditorium
in southeast Portland.
The songwriter, guitarist and con-
temporary blues artist has cultivated
a reputation as a modern master of
American roots music. He’s described
as a living link to the seminal Delta
Blues that travelled up the Mississip-
pi River and across the expanse of
America.
This year, Keb’ Mo released
‘”Oklahoma,” building on the back-
bone of the Blues with subjects like
depression and love, and current is-
sues like immigration and environ-
mental degradation. Following his
2018 Grammy Award-winning collab-
oration with Taj Mahal, TajMo, Glide
Magazine predicted, “another Gram-
my awaits,” calling “Oklahoma” the
most personal and adventurous album
he’s made.
Keb’ Mo’ plays at Revolution Hall, the former Washington
High School auditorium, on Friday, Oct. 4.
