Back Fence PDX: RUSSIAN ROULETTE is coming back to The Old Church on Saturday, March 21st and we are so ready for more compelling stories from our talented group of storytellers! 

Please let me know who the party-people-story-lovers are that I can put on the guestlist. Along with a killer group of Portland Storytellers, not only are shows ASL interpreted, but we are now an 18+ show!

As a reminder, we donate 10% of ticket proceeds to Oregon Food Bank and they will be present at the show collecting bottles of cooking oil in plastic, or in spray bottles (believe it or not, this is one thing that rarely gets donated -- so it’s our way of helping).

We are also a part of Arts for All. Meaning that anyone in the SNAP program can get $5 tickets to the show by emailing info@backfencepdx.com. 

We are so excited to welcome back BLAKE WALES, who is our ASL interpreter. Blake is a C.O.D.A and has been signing his entire life. He has also worked with various non-profit arts organizations in attempts to make events more accessible for all audiences and has been featured on KGW and KOIN news. Blake is always thrilled to be able to intertwine his performance background with his deep-rooted love for ASL and the Deaf/Hoh community.
