Performance Jam

for Slightly More Advanced InterPlayers, or Those Who Want to Be
Joy Anna Hodges, Darlene Kucken, Meg MacLeod, Alex Morton, and Lorrie Streifel

Asheville, NC

Fourth Wednesdays, 7:15-9:00 pm

First we learn InterPlay forms that are fun to perform and artful to watch. Then, sit back and savor your experience as a Witness, supporting the performers with the spirit of Affirmation. You can let your bodyspirit pull you up to tell, move, or sing a story, make something up on the spot, join in someone else’s offering, or call for an InterPlay form for the joy of it! No experience needed; just a willingness to explore and have FUN! You can't do it wrong!

Cost: $7 - $15 sliding scale

Registration/Information: No registration required. For more info, contact Lorrie 828/253-5575 or email Joy Anna (see below).

Joy Anna Banana Hozana Hodges loves living in Asheville. Housecleaner by taxes; by heart and soul: performance artist, organizer, InterPlay teacher, poet, Playback Theater actor, and semi-professional mischief-maker! Joy Anna's favorite fantastic fusion: InterPlay and Quaker Worship = "Embodied Worship," co-led with CL Peter Buck. Favorite InterPlay quote is from Steve, mushroom seller at farmers' market, and dedicated InterPlayer: "InterPlay is so powerful. It freaks me out all the time!"
