Mortified Portland Returns To Mission Theater
For Two Nights In July

Mortified, the cult comedy sensation that's a smash hit in LA, NYC, D.C., San Francisco, Austin, Chicago & Boston returns to McMenamins Mission Theater following a two-night sold out show in April.  Come see our performers share their shame on Thursday, July 15 and Friday, July 16.

Hailed locally by The Oregonian, Portland Monthly, and Willamette Week, and nationally by Newsweek, NBC's The Today Show, Entertainment Weekly and NPR's This American Life, Mortified stars everyday people reading aloud their most embarrassing, pathetic and private teenage diary entries, poems, love letters, lyrics and locker notes… in front of total strangers.  Witness "personal redemption through public humiliation" in a refreshing show that is equal parts comedic, cathartic and voyeuristic.  The largest and longest running project of its kind returns featuring a collection of Portland's bravest souls.

    Mortification is a part of life. I’ve definitely felt it – as the homeschooled girl with glasses and a head piece retainer. I’ve felt it – as the socially awkward college kid who fell for the smell-the-pool-chalk-it-smells-like-blueberries and ended up with the blue nose. I’ve felt it – as the new girl at work who fell down an entire flight of stairs on the first day. I’d love to win tickets so that I know there are other people as mortified as me.

    I’d like to see this for the catharsis. Tried to see it last year but had no idea how immensely popular it is. Pick me! I’m the one!
