In 2015, two Portland-based theatre artists and longtime friends, Sarah Marie Andrews and Kylie Jenifer Rose started Crave Theatre Company with one goal in mind: to create contemporary immersive theatre that encourages a dialogue about the pressing social issues in our clearly tumultuous world.

With a focus on social, global, and political issues, the collaborators who run Crave are compassionate, driven, and deliberate artists with skills ranging from visual arts, to puppetry and composition. Passionate about immersive theatre and making bold artistic choices, Crave’s theatre artists seek to give our audiences a new, unique experience with every show, and to provide a means for audiences to explore and express their opinions by creating and maintaining a strong and supportive community culture.
