Sarah Jane

Sarah Jane hails from the lovely kingdom of Orlando, Florida where she spent many happy years spreading magic before continuing her adventure in Portland a few years ago. Since earning her BFA in Performing Arts she has performed in countless plays and musicals, her favorite being Shakespeare plays (you may have seen her around Portland the past few years playing some of her favorite Shakespeare roles- Hamlet, Juliet, Rosalind, and of course Ariel, among others.) Her life’s passion is inspiring children, whether it’s helping them to believe that magic, fairies, and “happily ever after” are real (which they are!), or to express their own creativity through the arts. She teaches theatre and directs the Once Upon A Time Family Theatre at Portland Metro Arts which offers a monthly interactive fairytale play experience that kids can attend (and join us onstage for a bit if they like) with their friends and families for just one dollar. She also teaches performing arts classes for the wonderful SUN School outreach program that brings the arts to those kids who need it most.
