Rose City Stage Company is…

A Portland-based ensemble dedicated to telling timeless stories that transcend generations, genres, and geography. We believe in story first—content over concept—and in creating theatre that connects, moves, and serves the communities where it lives.

While we are rooted in the classics, we are not limited by them; we embrace stories that speak across time. Our mission is to gather artists and audiences in shared spaces of imagination, to make the familiar feel new, and to remind us of our shared humanity.

Upcoming Productions

A CHRISTMAS CAROL
December 2025


In partnership with NoVacancy, this site-specific reading of Dickens’s A Christmas Carol brings the raw heart of the 1843 text into a historic Old Town space, turning a once-vacant building into a warm holiday refuge where storytelling, compassion, and community support take center stage.

Our inaugural production will transform a vacant retail space in the Pearl District into an immersive theatrical forest of Arden — part performance, part gallery, part escape. More details coming soon.
