Providing Opportunities for Missoula Artists
Missoula has a wealth of local talent, and Room 131 is dedicated to providing a platform for their work. Founders Salina Chatlain and Anna Stone have been acting, directing and producing in Missoula (as well as around the nation and the world) for decades. Their first play festival in March 2024, Aquaphobia, Echoes, and Resurrection, included 17 new plays written, directed and acted by locals.
