Vortex 1 Musical - Staged Reading
Event Information
About this event
Vortex 1 is back! We are stepping out of the COVID blur to present a staged reading of our highly acclaimed musical celebrating a legendary part of Oregon history. In 1970, Oregon became the only state that has ever sponsored a rock festival, meaning the government paid for the bands, transported people to the event, provided food and places to camp, built the stage, and some say even bought the weed. Vortex 1 the musical takes its name from this mythical event. Come and see how it all transpired!
The reading coincides with the fifty-second anniversary of the 1970 student occupation of the Park Blocks in protest of the Vietnam War and the student massacre at Kent State. Books and lyrics by Sue Mach; music by Bill Wadhams of Animotion fame. We look forward to celebrating this amazing event with you!
