Students working on release work during an intensive

For those who want more…

Embark on an amazing journey — one that will both heal and shift you. Leave the world behind for two weeks. And dive into your craft.

Immerse yourself in the work. Embrace terror. And find gentler, freer exploration.

Let go of trying to get it right. Or thinking that harder work is better work.

Start working from the body. Not the brain.

Explore the collective unconscious.

Let go of all cerebral analysis or judgement. And start to live in the question.

The goal of an intensive is to TRANSFORM and SHIFT YOU!

We will go wherever the unconscious takes us, through Shakespeare, Chekhov, and more.

Come and be shifted.

Dive into the Creative Unconscious

In exploring deeper, gentler ways to work with the unconscious, we will need to let go of preconceived ways of working as we:

  1. Get to know what it looks like, feels like, how we access it.

  2. Deepen our capacity to work within it. Let it grow, expand, take over.

  3. Connect with the unconsciousness of playwrights.

  4. See what is truly there on the page. And then live within it.
