Our story

This is the second annual Yes, Portland festival. The festival was started to bring long-form improv teams together for one big, joyful weekend of shows and we're thrilled to keep the tradition going. We believe the principles of improv promote humanity. Improv teaches listening, agreement, and playfulness for people of all ages. Yes, Portland is our way of dedicating a whole weekend to that idea, together. All groups are welcome to apply!
