Visions of Rising Women
A Poetry Performance Ritual
Healing History in Tongues of Poetry
What Audience Members Experience:
"There was something in the theatre like energy from a place of soul reaching out to help us heal." -D.K.
"The performance opens like a flower, it's beauty carried on the scent of truth.
Wisdom after wisdom bloomed with each woman's poem."
- A.S.
"Riveting!
The performance moved me to my bones. It marries
past to future,
culture to culture,
art to history...
Exquisite experience of intimacy, inspiration, and information." - J.P.
"It became a part of me and transformed me. I didn't want it to end." - T.V.
MISSION:
To tend the wounds of global oppression through Art,
Activism and Spirituality;
To enable personal peace and transformation through the creation of safe space in which people can move beyond fear
to compassion.
To return the ancient healing power of Poetry to the Temple
of Theater.
