More about RUSSIAN ROULETTE… How it works: each show begins with a full wheel of juicy story prompts. One of our 6 seasoned storytellers will be randomly drawn. To determine the random prompt for their story, they will spin the giant game show wheel. They can play or pass. If they pass another teller can steal their prompt. Then the risky part… each storyteller has only 5 minutes to come up with a true 5-minute story based on that prompt! It’s like we invented a new game called truth AND dare.
At the end of the night, the audience will select a winner who will receive 50 bucks and some other cool prizes, like bragging rights for life. The winner will be invited to come back to the next show!
And one lucky audience member will also win prizes!

The documentary I Called Him Morgan is about a great jazz trumpet player, Lee Morgan, his common-law wife, Helen, and the events leading up to the early morning hours of February 19, 1972, when Helen shot her husband in the gut (with a gun he had given her) between sets at the aptly named Slug’s Saloon in NYC’s East Village. A more comprehensive biography of Lee Morgan’s life and career would make a great documentary, but that is not this documentary. I Called Him Morgan is smaller than that and much bigger at the same time. It is about Lee and Helen and a love gone wrong; it is about how men use women; it is about genius and those who want a piece of it; and it is about what can and cannot be forgiven. Shot simply, delivered clearly, and accompanied by one hell of a soundtrack.
Dance. Connect. Rage. Party. Give. Repeat.
What is the Liberty Ball?
It’s a night of resistance, music, and community.
It’s an opportunity to take all of the anger, sadness, and helplessness we’ve been feeling since the election and turn it into real, concrete support for marginalized populations here in Portland.
Come party—and fight for social justice—with these amazing musicians:

Sonic Cinema presents a brand new digital restoration, on the 50th anniversary of the Monterey Pop Festival!
On a beautiful June weekend in 1967, at the height of the Summer of Love, the first and only Monterey Pop Festival roared forward, capturing a decade’s spirit and ushering in a new era of rock and roll. Monterey would launch the careers of Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, and Otis Redding , but they were just a few among a wildly diverse cast that included The Who, the Byrds, Simon and Garfunkel, Jefferson Airplane and Ravi Shankar. With his characteristic vérité style, D. A. Pennebaker captured it all, immortalizing moments that have become legend: Pete Townshend destroying his guitar, Jimi Hendrix burning his.

OK LADIES...
Let’s get in formation for Portland Monthly's fun 5K run/walk/roll to honor the bold women reshaping Oregon. We'll work up a sweat...and then work together to empower the women and nonprofits in our community.

Everyone is welcome!* #womanuppdx #oregonwoman
EMPOWERING THE NEXT GENERATION OF GIRLS
To continue empowering the next generation of Oregon women, a portion of the event proceeds will be donated to Girls, Inc., the organization inspiring all girls to be strong, smart, and bold.

The Back Fence PDX: MAINSTAGE show has been playing to packed good-looking audiences since 2008. The evening features local and out of town storytellers telling true personal tales based on the night’s theme. Former storytellers range from a blood-spatter expert, a pet photographer, a park ranger, funeral director, a former Scientologist, to scientists and doctors, to New York Times best-selling authors, film actors/writers/directors, and people we’ve met on the street. MAINSTAGE stories have never been told publicly. In some cases, not even to significant others.
A tribute to director Jonathan Demme (1944-2017).
Sonic Cinema presents STOP MAKING SENSE (1984). Jonathan Demme captures the frantic energy of Talking Heads in this concert movie shot at the Hollywood Pantages Theatre in 1983. The band's frontman, David Byrne, first appears on an empty stage, armed with only an acoustic guitar, and is gradually joined by bassist Tina Weymouth, drummer Chris Frantz, keyboardist Jerry Harrison and a cadre of backup singers as they perform the band's hits, culminating in an iconic performance featuring Byrne in an enormous suit.
