The Clinton Street Cabaret owes an immeasurable debt of gratitude to the those who have owned the Clinton Street Theater over the past 40+ years. Without the understanding of what Rocky Horror was, its impact in the community, and without employees willing to stay up until dawn running the projector, serving popcorn…. and of course cleaning up the Audience Participation “mess” afterwards, we would not be here today.

Be sure to visit the Clinton Street Theater even when our cast is not performing. Many cast Alumni continue to run and perform their own shows here that include Burlesque, theater productions, drag shows and so much more. Additionally the Theater has long been known in the film community as a place to exhibit independent films to a receptive audience. And who knows, you may have the chance to see a local celebrity or two at the Clinton.

Both organizations involvement with each other goes to way back before either was an organized non-profit. Alumni and associated peoples from both communities frequently crossed over. Leading to the Clinton Street Cabaret performing at Peacock in the Park, and at Pride Parade.

Today, the CSC still participates in Portland Pride, by both marching in the Pride Parade, and with a booth at the yearly Waterfront Pride Festival held in July where you can meet cast members and buy merchandise.
