The Portal follows an age-old script of a journey, seeking and finding elements we didn’t know we were missing. “This was ultimately designed to follow many of the elements of a shamanic journey,” Comer notes. But don’t let yourself be scared off if that doesn’t ring your bell; you can relate to the experience on a psychological level instead of a spiritual one, or just let the images and sounds wash over you and then take from it what you will. Previous attendees have described it as “psychedelic,” “mind-clearing,” “fascinating,” “a black hole,” “eye-opening” and “unlike any show I’ve ever seen.”
Fasten your seatbelts and head to the Bluebird Theater, 3317 East Colfax Avenue, tonight for the Denver premiere of The Portal. Doors open at 7:30 p.m., and the show starts at 8; tickets, $18, are available at http://bluebirdtheater.net or 303-377-1666.
