Launched in 2019, Rogue Theater Company (RTC) presents theater that evokes, entertains, and enlivens the human spirit. In a collaborative environment — from Oregon Shakespeare Festival’s artists past and present, to the vast pool of extraordinary talent throughout the valley — our vision is to provoke dialogue, encourage empathy, and inspire curiosity.
Theater plays a crucial role in creating a better society. In the experience of theater, we witness differences, recognize commonalities, and learn empathy. Theater has the capacity to feel personal and intimate — to create palpable emotional connections between the performers and audience members in real time. RTC is committed to bringing art to life by exciting the hearts and minds of our audiences. As one of actor Lily Tomlin’s characters says, “We go to the theater to get a goose bump experience.” We hope this is your experience after seeing one of our productions. Lights up!
