Touch, The Generation Gap Musical

This dated abomination seems to have all but vanished from the annals of stage history, so far as googling can determine.

Enjoy the whole performance, thanks to the capacious memory of the Internet Archive.

I still have an LP with the same title "Touch". It's an electronic composition by Morton Subotnick, and it's from 1969. I bought it in 1972 at a PX in Japan. It's an SQ quadraphonic recording, and I had a quadraphonic receiver that could play it at the time. My receiver could also play QS and CD-4 recordings, too.

I want to see this, not just hear it, before I pass judgement.
