Portland Drama Club

Portland Drama Club PDC teaches Portland's youth the power in themselves through play, practice and performance

It is our goal in the Portland Drama Club to provide a creative, safe space for children to have fun, make new friends and gain confidence while learning the skills necessary to perform for an audience. Not only will children learn movement, vocal and acting technique as well as technical aspects of putting on a show, they will learn to work as a team and to form clear points of view. They will le

arn to encourage others to be silly and feel brave enough to be silly themselves. While they will absolutely learn to enunciate and speak up they will also become better listeners. They will learn that concentration and hard work pays off and is fun! Skills needed for the theater are skills that will carry throughout life. About Caroline:
Caroline Timm Schwiebert is an actress and director. She has primarily made her career in commercials and voice-overs, but has enjoyed working with children the most. She’s worked with them in a musical theatre setting for over 15 years having grown and run summer camps and year round after school productions and classes for Upstage Theatre Arts Schools in Los Angeles, CA. She’s also a mother of 3 and considers every student of hers her very own. She believes theatre is for everyone and has seen miraculous things happen to kids of all ages when they hit the stage.

Call us dramatic, but that’s what we do- THANK YOU SAINT DAVID OF WALES for housing us for 10 years. Thank you for helping us grow into who we are today. We will miss you as a new school starts and we hold more classes, shows, auditions, movie nights and dances at our new space. So grateful. But guess what?! We’ll be back for a few weeks for summer camp 2027!

Our Alumni Cabaret was a beautiful culmination of years of theater training, experience, friendship and bonding. Our PDC community has watched these young people grow from tiny eager elementary students to confident leaders on stage and off. Thank you to OG PDC student and current summer staff member Amalea Krill for planning and directing such a beautiful event. And thank you to the students and their families who dedicate so much time to making PDC what it is today. Happy 10 years!
