The lore, legends and legacy of the Portland Timbers and Timbers Army are featured in “Shed Culture,” a live show compiled, produced and directed by Hermes (nom de civilization: James Harrison), a capo so old-school that he saw every goal Brian Winters ever scored – indeed, so old-school that he can explain where the “Shed” part of the title comes from.
“Shed Culture” can now be both seen and heard -- this Dec 21st -- live onstage at the Alberta Rose Theatre, located at 3000 NE Alberta. Doors open at 6:30, show at 7:30. Part talk show, part sketch comedy with musical guests, there will two 45 minute halves of entertainment with a 15 minute intermission in between. Get your tickets ($12 GA) here..
So much a part of our history is “Shed Culture” that Hermes has begun reeling in sponsors for the ever-more big-budget programming. And one of those sponsors has got a deal for you.
Oregon Ballet Theatre will be offering discounted tickets for the “A Holiday Revue” show, scheduled for six performances between Dec. 10-22 at Keller Auditorium. Tickets start at $21, but thanks to “Shed Culture,” Timbers Army members can claim a 50 percent discount. Just click on the link and type ‘FORTHETIMBERS’ in the special offer code box
The show you will want to see, of course, is the finale on Thursday, Dec. 22. At the end of that night’s performance, the performers will be joined onstage by Timber Jim, Hermes, Purple Cow, Sunday White and others more familiar with the Tetris Dance than “The Nutcracker.”
