Happening annually in our backyard is the famous Oregon Shakespeare Festival (OSF). OSF is a regional repertory theater founded in 1935 by Angus L. Bowmer. From late February through October each year, the Festival offers 800 to 850 matinee and evening performances of a wide range of classic and contemporary plays not limited to Shakespeare to a total annual audience of nearly 400,000.
The Festival welcomed its millionth visitor in 1971, its 10-millionth in 2001, and its 20-millionth visitor in 2015.
At any given time between five and eleven plays are offered in daily rotation six days a week in its three theaters.
