Dramatic Repertory Company is proud to announce the next show in our 16th season: the 🌎 world premiere 🌏 of SEVEN SISTERS by award-winning playwright Lynne Conner, running October 2nd through 11th at the Studio Theater at Portland Stage. Directed by Abigail Killeen, this lyrical play focuses on the challenges and joys of seven sisters born into rural poverty in the early twentieth century.
A hymn to the beauty and magnitude of ordinary women, SEVEN SISTERS explores sisterhood, love, loss and aging; all with humor, compassion and a healthy dose of snark. Moving back and forth between July 1936 and July 2022, each actor plays one sister from childhood into old age.
🗓️ Mark your calendars to join us for a heartwarming production that will inspire you to hold your friends and family close and appreciate the extraordinary in the ordinary.
🌟 Featuring: Mary Fraser, Janice Gardner, Kim Gordon, Dana Legawiec, Rhonda Musak*, Molly Bryant Roberts, and Sally Wood. *Appearing courtesy of Actor’s Equity Association.

Appreciation post for our AT THE TABLE design(+) team! Audiences (and our actors) keep saying how cozy the set feels, and we have to agree!
Come get comfy with us (and then the script might make you a little wonderfully uncomfy in all the best ways 😊) during one of our remaining shows through March 8.
Thank you to -
✨ Steven Leighton for this gorgeous set design and literally giving us half his living room (and Rick for all his help transporting and assembling the set)
✨ Michaela Wirth for her comforting lighting design and sourcing an amazing chandelier that has become an important part of the show
✨ Johnny Speckman for his props design, sourcing what turned out to be a bajillion glasses and bottles and more plus some really pretty dinner plates (it’s the little things!) @bofus_marie
✨ Sarabell Wrigley for her costume coordination, helping to tell the story through wardrobe (and helping backstage with one major costume-related moment we’re keeping a secret until you see the show!) @professionalgengar
✨ Nathan Speckman for his sound design @refnatespeckman
✨ Kat Moraros for their set dressing (peep the plant act 1 vs act 2), marketing efforts and promo photography @katmorarosphotography

🗓️ 15 years after college, 4 friends gather for their annual unplugged upstate weekend getaway.
