Storm Large - Explore The Pearl Magazine

Storm Large brings her rock-star edge and a love of storytelling to the Gerding Theater's Main Stage.
STORMING THE ARMORY
Portland's Storm Large Stars in "Cabaret"
Story by Emily Puro

One's a sex farce penned by comedian Steve Martin, another question who really wrote Shakespeare's plays. And the opener? Let's just say that Portland Center Stage plans to take the local arts community by Storm when it launches its 20th anniversary season this fall at the Gerding Theater at the Armory.
Storm Large, best known for her turn on the reality-TV show "Rock Star: Supernova," will take a break from touring with The Balls to star as Sally Bowles in the classic Broadway musical "Cabaret." She'll share the stage with Wade McCollum, who has dazzled Portland theatergoers with standout performances in "Hedwig," "Batboy" and "I Am My Own Wife."
"I'm a very theatrical performer," Large says. "It's a natural move for me, and a challenging one, to actually do theater."
While the choice might surprise theater regulars and Storm Large fans alike, PCS artistic director Chris Coleman believes the casting is inspired. "Not only is she gorgeous and vulnerable and rough around the edges," Coleman writes in his blog, "but this girl can sing and tear up a stage."
Large says she was attracted to the role because "Sally is a beautiful mess," and because of the chance to work with McCollum. "I saw him in ‘Bat Boy' and fell madly in love. I'm so excited to learn from such a deep and wild professional."
PCS's Main Stage lineup won't back down after "Cabaret" closes. There's a world premier of an adaptation of Ken Kesey's "Sometimes a Great Notion" and the Pulitzer Prize-winning drama "Doubt, A Parable." Shakespeare's "Twelfth Night" will run in repertory with Amy Freed's "The Bead of Avon," which questions who really wrote Shakespeare's plays. And of course, "A Christmas Carol" returns for the holidays.
In the studio, smaller-scale productions prevail. "It's going to be a little sexier and a little saucy down there," says Coleman, adding that the contrast is a PCS tradition. "We've called our taste ‘wildly eclectic,' he says. "It's about juxtaposing things that seem to be very different to give you a pretty exciting journey through the course of a season."
In the studio, PCS will introduce "A Feminine Ending," a new play by Sarah Treem that explores feminism and the choices of a new generation of women. Another studio highlight will be "The Underpants," adapted by Steve Martin. "He's a surprisingly smart playwright," Coleman says. "It's like a chocolate mousse, this play. It's just so delicious and so tasty and so light. It's like a feather."
PCS will continue to make theater accessible to all audiences with events such as Fade to Black parties for the under-40 crowd ($20 includes performance and party), Girls Night Out (about $45 for performance and dinner), and no-host opening-night parties. At Prologues, held prior to select weeknight performances, audiences can learn more about each play from the artists themselves. As always, tickets remaining at showtime are sold for $10 in the box-office "rush line."
As if the chance to see Storm Large on stage isn't reason enough to head for the Armory. "I have never done anything like this before, and I am terrified," Large admits, "but I love music. I love storytelling. I love acting and writing. If I can do it and it sounds fun, crazy, challenging or all of the above, I'm into it."

Storm and Wade PCS Cabaret Interview
An interview with Storm Large and Wade McCollum that appears in the Portland Center Stage Cabaret program.
Hunter Wades through the Storm
A Few Moments with the Stars of Cabaret
MEAD HUNTER: Storm and Wade, you are both busier than ever these days, with projects underway in various media. What made you willing to take on the challenge of a live musical extravaganza, playing Sally Bowles and the Emcee in Cabaret?
WADE MCCOLLUM: This is an amazing show with a message that is applicable to today's political climate. It strikes a chord in me about the roles we all play in our current state of governmental abuse. It is a provocative and challenging piece of classic musical theater, and I could not pass up the opportunity to work with Storm and PCS on this incredible story.
STORM LARGE: As an artist, it's very good for your brain to thrust yourself out of the comfort zone. For me, my comfort zone is free style, spontaneous rock n' roll and touring ... plus being the Big Loud Me that I've been forever. This is somewhat more regimented, and though Sally and I share some certain qualities, she's not me. So I'm doing it for my delicious brains.
MEAD: Did you give Chris a hard time about accepting your roles? I know he courted you some time....
STORM: Not a hard time ... we had some lovely dates, meals and laughs while he was courting me. I was hard to nail down because my schedule is constantly changing, and there were other great opportunities that fell in the same time frame ... but he finally got me. He's a charmer, that Chris!
WADE: Like Storm, I was and am juggling many projects and schedules. It is a great problem to have, too many wonderful things ... and having a hard time choosing.
MEAD: You're both popular, well-known faces here in Portland. Does that make it harder for you to disappear completely into your roles?
STORM: We'll see ... I hope not!
WADE: Absolutely not, for me. The essence of the craft of acting is transformation. I love the ultimately compassionate act of transforming into different skins.
MEAD: Storm, Sally Bowles is a mass of contradictions. She wants to be happy, to be in love, but she also worries about becoming conventional ... she longs for stability, yet seems to benefit from the instability of Nazi Germany. How do you inhabit such a quirky character?
STORM: I don't know karate, but I do know CR-RAZY! Sally has the textbook artistic struggles we all have ... I totally relate to wanting to be utterly worshipped, paid well, the toast of every town, yet I want to appear aloof, unfettered and brilliant ... skinny and young, too. Did I mention I want to look skinny and young?
MEAD: And Wade, who is the Emcee? For the audience he's a bit of a cipher – antagonist and protagonist both – but who is he to you?
WADE: The Emcee is the master of ceremonies. The question is: what ceremony are we in? He is the mercurial id in the beginning of the show. He is the archetypal trickster – a dangerous, sexually ambiguous, androgynous siren of sensuality, luring us into the deep shadowy waters of our subconscious ocean. He is a drug-addicted, glorified callboy in a debaucherous 1930s Berlin cabaret doing the best he can to survive in a deluge of fascism, violence and political, racial and economic turmoil. He is the Nazi in us all and the victim of nazism in us all. A paradox...
MEAD: Nowadays, most people know the Cabaret plot through the movie version, as opposed to the play or Christopher Isherwood's semi-autobiographical book The Berlin Stories. What surprises are in store for them with the musical version?
WADE: Well, if we told, it wouldn't be a surprise, now would it?
STORM: Wade, as the Emcee, gets naked a lot. YAYYY!!!!!
MEAD: Tell us about life after Cabaret. What's around the corner for you creatively?
WADE: I will be workshopping the musical I have been working on for some time called ONE the musical. We have a brilliant new playwright on the project and we're taking a new approach to the book. I am also heading into a period of intense study and writing – a training pilgrimage of sorts, to study with master artisans to create a semi-autobiographical theater piece. There is more but I will spare you the list of future projects.
STORM: I immediately start pre-production for my next album, to be released in February 2008 ... then I hit the road for another gang of months.
MEAD: Great, but I hope your projects won't be taking you away from Portland completely. What might we do to lure you back?
STORM: Portland is the shiny lure for me. I may travel far and wide and often, but I will always return. This is my home.
WADE: Storm said it best. Portland is the lure. This is home. Though I will travel far and wide and often, I will always return to this amazing cradle of conscious community and kick-ass artists.
