This fractured fairy-tale features an abandoned princess dealing with her evolving self-image as she faces down her eating disorder, learns to speak loud enough to be heard and encourages others to do the same.

Inspired by Jungian thought, the writings of Clarissa Pinkola Estes and Mindy’s personal stories, this five-song show is strung together with narrative storytelling and psychological soundscapes.

Featuring Mindy Dillard on acoustic guitar and Eric McEuen on electric guitar.  Admission is $12.  Best suited to ages 10 and up; tickets available via online purchase or at the door

To create, to improvise, to perform, you have to enter into the unknown–the Void . . . a place of all possibilities . . . where anything can happen . . .

A unique experiential approach that brings joy, mindfulness, imagination, spontaneity & play into life & the creative process.

Improvisation/Composition is approached from two vantage points:

Exploring the Creative Process to develop:
• Moment to moment awareness and presence
• Alert Relaxation and Radical Sensing
• Recognizing and working with Authentic Creative Impulses
• Engagement with the Audience
• Empathy
• The expressive possibilities of movement, spoken word, and sounding
• Joy as the foundation of the creative experience

Exploring the formal aspects of Improvisation/Composition:
• Time ((Rhythm, Duration, attitude towards)
• Space (Spatial Architecture, attitude towards)
• Dynamics (energy, Rudolph Laban’s Action Efforts)
• Gesture
• States of Being (internal attitude & essence)
• Development of Imagery (action, character, image, archetype)
• Action/Response (the ever ongoing relationship–both internal and external)
• Scores

FOR ACTORS & DANCERS & ANYONE WANTING MORE CREATIVITY &/OR PERFORMANCE TOOLS IN THEIR LIFE AND ART. 

APPROPRIATE FOR ALL LEVELS OF EXPERIENCE.

Anet Ris-Kelman was Scott Kelman’s assistant for over 10 years, and currently teaches & performs in Portland & LA. She danced professionally in NYC with Daniel Nagrin’s improvisation group, ‘The Workgroup’, and in LA with the ‘Rudy Perez Performance Ensemble”, among others. Her video art poems won a national prize and have shown internationally. She has received grants from the City of LA for theater and video projects.

What people are saying about the workshops:

•“This amazing work, that Anet teaches so brilliantly, has informed and benefited everything I have done: as a teacher, workshop facilitator, performer, mindset coach, and entrepreneur. “Can ‘presence’ be taught?” Anet proves that the answer to that question is a resounding yes! This work rocks!”

•“These are invaluable tools for performance that enable greater focus & fresh approaches.”

•“Anet is a wonderfully direct and present teacher and the work is deeply challenging and fun.”

•“This work helped me to be more conscious-in-self rather than self-conscious.”

•“transformative”, “direct skill training in how to stay present”, “fun”
