THEME: TURNING FEAR INTO AN ALLY
As fear, cultural & primorial, often arise around the topic of death, we will be utilizing certain (gentle) methods of theatrical practice to illuminate and activate our own transformative potential.
1) Setting the Scene: Please imagine your own cozy togetherness and re-create it with us.
2) Playing the Part: We are inviting our fear to tell its story. Or hum us its song. Whatever arises, we will hold a space for it together in acts of theatrical catharsis, of cleansing.
3). Working with Witnessing Awareness: These stories will offer us opportunities to uncover the basic thought / emotion patterns that hold them together. A deep mental / emotional wiring of our fear(s) may become clearer.
Please bring a cozy blanket / pillow to nest in, zero-in on a story you may want to work with, and bring your witnessing presence! That’s all. Primordial Fear will love us for that.
