About PST
Portland Story Theater, brain child of Lynne Duddy, and originally created in collaboration with Lawrence Howard, Walt Schaefer, Alton Chung, and Rick Huddle, was launched in 2003 to bring the urban community together for a unique performance experience, telling tales that stimulate the mind and rouse the heart. Using personal story as the foundation, tellers work collaboratively to expose and explore the universality of the human experience. This is live theater as you've never seen it before, with no sets, no costumes, no props, and no fourth wall --- just the teller and the audience and the authentic story that unfolds between them.

Map and Driving Directions

What is dark matter? Is it the force that holds the universe together or the great, mysterious unknown of our collective consciousness? Do all the things we lose become a part of the dark matter? Can we ever find them again?

Take a ride on the dark side, as Lynne Duddy uses science as a metaphor for the human heart, and explores the answers within us all. dark matter tells the true stories of everyday life and the extraordinary things that can happen.

A daughter realizes that she accompanied her father to the other side. A scientist questions her career after her discovery is met with disbelief. A five-year old girl experiences the power of the lightning, only to discover a dark truth years later.

Don't miss this opportunity to experience a tapestry of voice, image, and muscial soundscape, with special guests, a'cappella singers Emily Post. Part science, part mystery, part cosmic joke, dark matter delves into the push and pull of the universe, exploring stuff that we can’t see but is definitely there, we think…
