The Portland Lesbian Choir invites you to join us for an engaging evening of music. This special intimate show will feature current Artistic Director Mary McCarty who is also a consummate flautist. Mary will be retiring after our June concert so this is a unique opportunity to see another side of her many talents! Colin Shepard, our pianist, is also quite an accomplished musician and will accompany Mary. In addition Resonate a cappella group will perform as an ensemble and in featured solos and duets.

This joyful evening will include music from The Last Five Years, Rent, Once, The Notebook, Tangled, and others. Doors open at 6:30 pm and the show begins at 7:30 pm.

Queer Joy Is Our Resistance features music by queer and queer-ally artists that celebrates our existence and our power in community.  As queer people in today's culture, our existence demonstrates bravery every day, and we believe that remaining joyful is one of the ways we counteract the negative energy directed at us. Singing in a queer choir is a radical act of resistance. Our joy is an act of resistance.

This concert will include music by Carly Rae Jepsen, Dua Lipa, Shea Diamond, Pattie Gonia, Joy Oladokun, Brandi Carlile, and others. The Joy, Power, and Resistance of 160 singers is an experience not to be missed! Click below to reserve your seats!
