I like the idea of this article which just has a list of a lot of the shows that are happening in a specific state. I will say, the first part of the article felt a little disjointed from the rest of it and should have maybe been a different article. As I’ve said in previous comments, I have had a lot of conversations about when you put a body on stage that they will bring every part about them to that role, no matter your intentions. An indigenous Laura and Tom with a white mother brings a completely new perspective on their family dynamics. Even without adding anything to the script, you are adding a whole new layer to the show, especially depending on when you set the time period. There is a lot of different theater happening in Oregon. I would be interested in seeing Worry Dolls and how many puppets are in it. Is the whole cast puppets or are there some human actors like in Avenue Q?
