Linestorm Playwrights

LineStorm Playwrights was established in 2016 as a nonprofit collective of Portland-area dramatists. LineStorm fosters the development of new and diverse works of theatre by member playwrights, sharing those works in progress with the general public to encourage dialogue and provide an opportunity to hear community voices. LineStorm is a playwright company in residence at Artists Repertory Theatre. Together LineStorm conceived Portland in Play : a theatrical representation of our city featuring ten-minute plays inspired by Portland’s eclectic neighborhoods. Individually our playwrights create short and full-length plays, which are read and produced nationally and internationally. Members began writing together in 2012 as P-Town Playwrights, and evolved into the current group four years later.
