Many say that this is the most important Presidential election of our
lifetimes. The country is polarized with politically opposing views.
Voter registration is up, and the political debates are raging all over
the country. It's the home-stretch of the election. In these challenging
times, VORTEX proudly offers a reading of Dear George: Letters to the
President, a poignant, political play. VORTEX joins theatre companies
from New York, California, Wyoming, Illinois, Ohio, North Carolina, and
Alaska to present coast-to-coast readings of this play. VORTEX proudly
presents the only reading of this piece in Bush's home state of Texas.

From Memorial Day to Labor Day, theatre artist Marcus Woollen, of New
York's West 50th Street Productions, gathered real letters from real
Americans all over the country and then wove them into this moving,
politically-charged theatrical piece: Dear George: Letters to the
President. Americans of all ages, backgrounds, and political viewpoints,
from all 50 states, wrote over 1500 open letters to President Bush.
Submissions were evenly divided between those who approve and disapprove
of President Bush. These letters to President George W. Bush have all
been sent on to the White House.

Austin actors Karen Kuykendall, Mick D'arcy, Traci Laird, and Marc Pouhé
perform the reading of the letters. VORTEX Producing Artistic Director,
Bonnie Cullum, directs the reading.

Audience members arriving prior to 7:45 will be given opportunities to
write their own letters to Mr. Bush. Some of these will be integrated
into the performance, and all of these letters will be sent on to The
White House.
