Think of this guide as your personal invitation to play, dazzle, and shine in a way that feels uniquely you.

Happy styling!
Meet the team behind Portland's Paris Theatre
After years of anticipation, the lights of Portland’s historic Paris Theatre are about to shine again. The 1890 landmark has been lovingly restored under the care of Chris and Fae Pink, founders of Seattle’s celebrated Can Can Culinary Cabaret. With their signature mix of artistry, heart, and a little mischief, the duo is breathing new life into Old Town for a new era of performance, community, and joy.
Ahead of opening night, Chris and Fae shared a behind-the-scenes look at bringing the Paris Theatre back to life, reviving its sparkle, spirit, and stage for a new generation.
