“THE GREATEST ROCK OPERA EVER PRODUCED ABOUT A WATERSHED!” APRIL 11th, 12th, 13th 2025 | HOOD RIVER, OREGON
To celebrate 15 years of Sense of Place we present…
The Watershed Rock Opera - A multimedia performance in 5 movements celebrating the Columbia River Gorge and its people. Featuring original music composed and performed by local musicians in accompaniment with original film, audio, and theatrical performances.
“IT’S LIKE A LOVE LETTER TO A PLACE, BUT WITH MORE PERCUSSION!”
And like all true love stories, there will be passion, tragedy, humor, and awe. Imagine a pear orchardist, ready for harvest when Mother Nature strikes!…Or hiking high in the Cascade Mountains, tracking rare carnivores with a feisty biologist…Even here, in our homes, schools, and workplaces – there’s something mysterious, some might even say magical, happening right under our feet (and butts)…
