Back Fence PDXwill feature Portland’s Popina with a Retro Swimwear Fashion Show!  Back Fence PDX is the mastermind of B. Frayn Masters  and Melissa Lion  together they host a Portland Storytelling Show for Adults which features eight minute unscripted stories by all sorts of interesting people. 

This Wednesday June, 17th at the Mission Theater

Back Fence PDX will be celebrating their 1st anniversary.  Popina was invited to the very first Back Fence Show one year ago so why not have us back to celebrate year 1! (great decision by Frayn and Melissa).

Last years fashion show was by far the most fun we have had with a fashion show, it included an impromptu q&a of the models and great commentary by the Back Fence Babes.

Show starts at 7:15pm this weeks theme……Caught Red-Handed, should be fun!
