Notes from the Field at Portland Playhouse

Drawn from interviews with more than 250 students, parents, teachers and staff, Notes from the Field is a heart-wrenching tale of injustice, compassion, and hope that will leave you on the edge of your seat. 

This production lays the broken criminal justice system bare and explores the harrowing experiences of students, parents, and activists fighting for justice in a system that seems determined to fail them.

This powerful performance exposes a world where schools have become a pipeline to prisons, and young black men are being systematically pushed out of the education system and into the criminal justice system. But amidst the darkness, there are rays of light, as dedicated educators, activists, and community leaders fight tirelessly to make a difference in the lives of these vulnerable young people.

Through powerful monologues and breathtaking performances, Notes from the Field transports you into the lives of those who have been most affected, and leaves you with a sense of hope, and a belief that change is possible. 

So, if you're looking for a show that will challenge your assumptions, stir your emotions, and inspire you to action, then this production is for you. Don't miss out on a profoundly moving production – purchase your tickets today and be a part of the movement for justice and equity!
