This year (2025) at Stage Left, Fairies crash the Fair!

The Show Committee is excited to bring back many favorites from years past (and some new performers) to put on an original show.

When Fairies descend upon the Fair, their pranks rip reality. Chaos! Will the Circus be unbroken?

Received an email for OCF Vaudeville today - it's not entirely official but unofficially we won't be having an in-person Fair this year, due to public health concerns. It takes months to put the Fair together, and that's hard to do without herd immunity, and then to bring in 25,000 people/day in early July .... Boo hoo and stay tuned. Love each other and reach out please to those needing extra support.

Hey there StageLeft fans! We are super excited about our show this year. Jason Webley, Poki McCorkle, Justin Therrien (NO NOODLES!) will put on a boat-based shipwreck of a show on our stage, with music and narration and vaudeville skills and some interactive moments. After the Fair, they will take the show on the RIVER and present it free and outdoors to cities downriver, along the Willamette River. Bringing the circus to people who can't get to the Fair! Meanwhile in June, the troupe will put on shows in some of those cities as a fundraiser. Please support them and help this show stay afloat.
