CALENDAR
Lane Community College’s The Oresteia Project is an all-original
musical, built in collaboration with some of our arts community’s
heavy hitters. Featuring music by Cullen Vance, with book and
lyrics by six writers, including LCC’s Brian Haimbach and Jen Ferro
— and with support from students Gypsy Prince, Cairo Smith,
Morgan Suitor and Ripley Cerna — the show promises a new take
on an ancient tale. “I’ve always wanted to do a Greek tragedy with
original music,” Haimbach says. “They’re just so operatic that
they lend themselves to the heightened emotions that you only
get with music.” Haimbach notes that, though coordinating the
work of six writers certainly presents challenges, it has yielded
surprises as well. “Seeing these students acting like rock stars
and owning the material was so rewarding,” he says of watching
rehearsals. “And I’m surprised how great it sounded. Cullen Vance’s
music is literally tailor-made for them and sounds amazing.” LCC
will offer free admission to the show with a canned food donation
to Food for Lane County. “And we’re doing a promotion for the HIV
Alliance,” Haimbach says. “Free admission to anyone who gets
tested with them.”
LCC presents The Oresteia Project at 7:30 pm Thursday through
Saturday, April 27-29 and at 2:00 pm Sundays, April 27 through May
7, in the Ragozzino Performance Hall, 4000 E. 30th Ave; $5– $10
or FREE w/canned food donation or HIV testing. — Rachael Carnes

“Bicycles let people move
with greater speed…”
“…without taking up significant amounts of scarce space, energy or time. …(people)
become masters of their own movements without blocking those of their fellows. The
use of the bicycle…allows people to create a new relationship betweeen their life-space
and their life-time, between their territory and the pulse of their being…”
—Ivan Illich in Energy & Equity
