Portland Story Theater

In city full of storytellers and theater of all kinds, Portland Story Theater's productions stand out as one of the most intimate and authentic story telling events in the region.
Hats off to Lawrence and Lynne for all that you do! My experience as an Urban Teller was transformational.

I have been a fan of Portland Story Telling Theater for years and just finished taking the Urban Tellers workshop. How can I explain all the emotions that I experienced in those four short weeks of developing and performing my story? What mattered most was the ultimate high of last Friday night's performance with my fellow story tellers. I strongly encourage anyone who is remotely iterested to take this step into an adventure of a life time!

The Urban Tellers show in December at Hipbone Studio was the fourth time I have taken a workshop with Lynne and Lawrence. Each time I learn new things and my storytelling evolves. The performances are always amazing, fun, intimate and enlightening. Come as an audience member or come as a workshop participant, either way you will be delighted!

I just completed the Urban Story Tellers workshop and performance. I went in with trepidation and came out raving about the whole experience. Many thanks to the leaders of the workshop, Lynne Duddy and Lawrence Howard for creating a postive, supportive environment and guiding us with their experience and expertise so that we could get to the truths of our stories. A positive life experience.

What a delightful evening. Wonderful, personal stories of personal challenge and triumph. Loved the story tellers, the atmosphere, the idea. Will return soon, perhaps even sign up to tell my own story.

Want to be pleasantly surprised at yourself? Bring your story idea(s) in the rough and have expert, nurturing coaches assist you to uncover the deeper nuances. A life changing experience in a very profound way.

The Portland Story Theater put on another fantastic Urban Tellers show on 11-11-111 I would highly recommend everyone to go through the Personal Narrative class they offer. It's an experience you'll never forget or regret!

Another wonderful night at Portland Story Theater! Thanks to all how made it happen.

I just experienced the 11-11-11 Portland Story Tellers event and, as always, found it totally enthralling. The tellers bared their souls and won our hearts once again, letting the audience into the intimate moments of their lives, reliving the pain, the joy, the bittersweet moments that make up our life journeys. As always, it was a privilege to be allowed into the hearts of the tellers and to share with them secret joys and sorrows we all experience. I left feeling honored to have shared these moments that transported me out of me own life into the universal journey we all share. - Mary Welch

I love the storytelling shows, all the people tonight did a fantastic job and it was really cool to see each story. I cant wait for the next one!
