FALL IN LOVE WITH THEATRE
Anthropology
By lauren Gunderson
OCT 23 – NOV 15 @ 100 LIVES THEATRE
KOIN 6 – Everyday Northwest
One local play tells a story of family, grief, and artificial intelligence
“What does it really take to love someone unconditionally?”
That’s the question at the heart of the latest production from 100 Lives Repertory Theatre, “Anthropology.” An intimate, sexy, and quietly unsettling thriller, the play explores grief, artificial intelligence, and the enduring bond between sisters. Featuring an all-woman cast, this production aims to bring a fresh and original story to Portland’s theater scene. Everyday Northwest host learned all about this production from co-producers Brooke Totman and Annie Kehoe.

we are 100 lives.
A COMPANY of actors dedicated to creating raw, emotionally honest work centered on the craft of acting and the work of women artists over 40. We’re launching a movement that champions: depth over flash, experience over novelty, and connection over comfort.
We’re committed to character-driven plays, stripped of spectacle to create intimate intersections of life and story. Messy and real and alive with craft, we play in small spaces to maximize intimacy, bringing you close enough to feel every shift, every breath
ATMag Interview: Why start a theatre company now?
American Theatre Magazine talks with 100 Lives about starting a theatre company in today’s cultural landscape
“In Portland, Oregon, and acting-studio-turned-performance-space was a major catalyst for creating the recently established 100 Lives Repertory, which produces work “centered on the craft of acting and the work of women over 40.”
“As [co-founder] Brooke Totman tells it, “We talked about the kind of theatre that inspires us, the kind of art we’d want to create. The more we talked about it, the more we realized we were on the same page. By the end of the meeting we were like, well, let’s just become a non-profit and do this as a theatre company.”
