Theatre for Consciousness: Creative Art Practices for All People 

The Zany Angels Dance Theater Company lead participants through a supportive journey, in which we use our voices, tell our stories, find the humor in who we are, go deep, and get Zany.  This is a time to mine the depths of your personal mythology to bust through logical thinking into beautiful, unrestrained art making. We will offer managable, bite-sized, structures in theatre, creative writing, and movement that allow creativity to unfold step by step.  ANYONE CAN DO IT!  Then we share our discoveries in a safe, supportive, and grounded environment held and cultivated by the facilitators. Theatre For Consciousness is a transformational, heart-based experience that frees the mind and ignites the creative spirit.

Zany Performance Art Workshop for Experienced Artists

This workshop shares the foundational base of Theatre for Consciousness and takes the work deeper and more specific into the making of performance work.  Autobiographical storytelling, character development, creative writing into monologue, clowning, and spontaneous performance are all part of it.  As a dance theater company, we have developed an in-depth approach into heart-based, embodied performance. We have witnessed people from MANY WALKS OF LIFE find  playful and meaningful outlets to tell their truths, share their questions and passions, through movement, sound, writing, and performing. 

Creative Couples: Physical, Emotional, & Creative Practices for Couples Who Want to Be Close

Come explore bite-sized yet in-depth forms that deepen intimacy and promote joyful connection. The overall focus of this workshop is to offer couples ways to communicate and express together in order to bring more closeness and pleasure into the relationship. The balance of embodiment, emotional health, and play will be addressed throughout the day.  No previous experience necessary in art, movement, or co-counseling.  This day is for all levels and couples from all walks of life.  You are welcome to come to this workshop with your partner, or a friend - someone you want to share this time with.
