Gavin Hoffman as Iago in Othello?
Terrific, right? We come together on June 9 to celebrate all of Portland’s exciting and vibrant theatre! Pretty much everyone will have a favorite they think we missed! But this is the list we 17 came up with, after attending 116 productions, in an anonymous vote, by a method we had statisticians vet and approve. I am sure Gavin, fabulous actor and all-round great guy that he is, will be the first to congratulate this fine bunch of finalists.
