Host of Artists on the Verge, Ema Katrovas, shares her next-day impressions after a live show she created which was two years in the making - and, more importantly, how her experiences around the budget, the technical aspects of the show, the reactions of the public, and the show's prospects for the future may hint at a new focus for the podcast. Here are links to the YouTube and Instagram accounts where you can find some of the shorts/reels about the show which Ema published in the month leading up to the show: YouTube Playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLSFIN5ke8euZ18W2hUWGKNnd0MGCdSjVB Instagram account: https://www.instagram.com/artists_on_the_verge/ (During this episode, Ema mentions Jerzy Grotowski's Poor Theatre without much explanation - you can actually learn more about that in the shorts/reels linked above.)
I am honoured to be joined by Sayra Player, Creator of the Goop featured Guided by Glow erotic meditation app as we discuss the many different facets of sexual empowerment including overcoming embarassment and shame through sexual healing, the importance of community support in personal growth, reconnecting with your body through your senses and opening up your sensuality, and so much more! So grab a cup of your favourite cozy bevvy, personally I love a good french press coffee with cinnamon, and be a fly on the wall as us girlfriends chat openly and honestly about the different facets of women's sexual empowerment. Sexual Empowerment with Sayra Player of Guided by Glow Introduction of guest Sarah Player and Guided by Glow Embarrassment and growing comfort in discussing sexuality Transforming through trauma and embracing one's sexual identity Community and support in personal growth Exploring sexuality beyond societal norms Reconnecting with one's body and sexuality Sexual healing and empowerment through Guided by Glow Addressing and overcoming sexual shame Expanding the definition and experiences of sex Importance of prioritizing sexual health and wellness Empowerment and transformation through embracing sexuality Sayra Player My life's focus is to create community and healing through fine art.” Sayra founded and teaches at The Playground, where she leads movement, psychedelic breath work and empowered parts work through scene study. She studied breathwork with David Elliot & Frequency Breathwork. her natural power of presence and awareness of her sensorial body gained her a seat at The Actors Studio, where she has grown alongside acting legends. The sensory approach practiced there is much like that of somatic therapy, going into the tension (perhaps past trauma), unlocking the trapped energy through imagination, through being deeply curious. She spent months in Poland and Italy searching for the potential of aliveness, through ancient song and exercise with the iconic Workcenter of Jerzy Grotowski. Her Jungian mentor Elizabeth Kemp taught her how to harness the power of my subconscious mind, to go deeper than making intentional choices but to work with the material of the soul to know the self deeply. As a creator. Sayra has written, produced, cast, starred in, directed film and theatre for her whole adult life. As an Artistic Director of The Collective NY (founding member Amy Schumer), she nurtured over 60 artists, produced 10 plays, a benefit, a fundraiser, developed television and film. She also created Guided by Glow the #1 sexual meditation audio app for female and nonbinary embodiment practices. As a mom, she produces a beautiful and safe container for her 10 year old to blossom.

- Najwybitniejsi twórcy polskiego powojennego teatru sięgali po dramaty Stanisława Ignacego Witkiewicza jako jednego z pierwszych autorów w swojej pracy reżyserskiej. Jerzy Grotowski chciał wystawiać "Szewców" na Wawelu, gdy był jeszcze studentem Akademii Teatralnej. Tadeusz Kantor przez pierwsze 20 lat teatru Cricot 2 eksploatował prawie wyłącznie teksty Witkacego - mówił w Dwójce dr Przemysław Pawlak, witkacolog.

Imagine: If you could hear what a prophetic tree had to say, would you share what the tree was telling you? If you were a tree, what kind of tree would you be? If you could become an animal, what animal would you be? 'Yomumuli and the Talking Tree' is a creation story that has been passed down for generations. There are many different versions. The one you are hearing is a combination of two: one by Yaqui leader Anselmo Valencia and the other by Yaqui temasti Lucas Chaves. The Yaqui, or Yoeme, are Indigenous peoples whose homelands include the Río Yaqui valley in Sonora, Mexico, and the area below the Gila River in Arizona, Southwestern United States. They also have communities in Chihuahua and Durango, Mexico. Yoemem (also known as the Yaqui Nation) believe they descend from a tribe called the Surem. About today's storyteller: Mexican of Yoeme/Basque heritage, performer, choreographer, and instructor living in Toronto, Norma Papalotl Araiza works in different modalities within the arts blending dance, theatre, vocals, percussion, and text with cultural and traditional themes in a contemporary context. Norma has studied with international artists such as Jerzy Grotowski, Eugenio Barba, Natsu Nakajima, Tascabile di Bergamo, Kei Takei, Pol Pelletier, among others. Norma is the co-artistic director of Vanguardia Dance Projects, a collective promoting Latin American and Indigenous dance artists. She holds a Master's Degree in Dance Ethnology from York University and graduated from the Expressive Arts Therapy Program at CREATE Institute. She has a private practice as an Expressive Arts Therapist.

Girish talks more about his dramatic and literary influences which range from classical Sanskrit plays like Mricchakatika to such avant garde practitioners as Jerzy Grotowski. About the Series: In June 2019, a few days before his death, Girish Karnad and Arshia Sattar had extensive conversations about his work, his life, and the concerns that had occupied him over almost sixty years as a writer and a public intellectual. This podcast is a distillation of those freewheeling conversations, a short intellectual biography to celebrate the life and work of one of India's finest playwrights and thinkers. In this series, we hear Girish talk about Kannada literature, existentialism, making of modern Indian theatre, the art and craft of playwriting, and his life as a public intellectual. The series is hosted by Arshia Sattar and Anmol Tikoo, with special guests such as Vivek Shanbhag, Shanta Gokhale, and Sunil Shanbag, who provide the context for Girish's comments. Each episode also contains scenes from his plays read by members of Bangalore's theatre community. The readings show us how closely his philosophical and political ideas were to what he wrote. They also provide an opportunity for audiences, particularly those who might not be already familiar with Girish's works, to experience the power of his work. The title for the series is taken from the song in Hayavadana (Kannada title), a song which has been musically recreated for us by Pallavi MD and Konarak Reddy. Apart from the fact that Neerina Mele Chitra remains one of Kannada's most beloved ranga geethe, we found it to be particularly evocative as we remember a man who profoundly impacted India's cultural arena in the last half of the 20th century. This podcast series, we hope, will bear witness to Girish Karnad, a man who gave us so much to remember, but also so much to take forward.
You have to put your own oxygen mask on first, folks. That's just how it is. I Want You Back Year: 2022 Written by: Isaac Aptaker and Elizabeth Berger Director: Jason Orley Stars: Charlie Day, Jenny Slate, Scott Eastwood, Gina Rodriguez, Manny Jacinto, Clark Backo Show notes: This six-some reel of a film feels simultaneously up-to-date and out of time. And it might just be (for Charles Adrian, at least) too funny? In this episode, we reference the musical Little Shop Of Horrors (first published 1982) (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Little_Shop_of_Horrors_(musical)) and the films Sleepless In Seattle (1993) (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0108160/), The 40-Year-Old Virgin (2005) (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0405422/) and When Harry Met Sally (1989) (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0098635/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1) (Sleepless In Seattle is also the subject of our 12th episode, btw). We namecheck Nancy Meyers (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nancy_Meyers) and the “Polish guy who used to wake his actors up”, whose name Charles Adrian can't remember at around the 31 minute mark, is Jerzy Grotowski (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jerzy_Grotowski). In June, we will be watching the films Plus One (2019) (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt7645122/) and The Wedding Year (2019) (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt8367184/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0).

The legendary theater director, actor, shaman André Gregory has been producing ground-breaking work for over half a century. He's perhaps best known for the projects he did with Wallace Shawn—“My Dinner With André” (which is celebrating its 40th anniversary), “Vanya on 42nd Street” and “A Master Builder.” His recent book “This Is Not My Memoir" details, with refreshing honesty, his extraordinary life through incredible stories about, for instance, learning from the great Jerzy Grotowski, getting punched by Gregory Peck, buried alive in Richard Avedon's backyard, to name just a few. On this episode, Gregory answers some questions about his unique rehearsal process, talks about why it doesn't matter if the stories he tells about his life are rooted in fact, offers up a one word answer to what his hope is for the future of performance, and much more.

Intimate or drastic elements in the work of others are untouchable and should not be commented upon even in their absence. Private conflicts, quarrels, sentiments, animosities are unavoidable in any human group, but it is our duty towards creation to keep these in check in so far as they might deform and wreck the work process.” — Jerzy Grotowski —

What's a fuckup for John? What was his relationship with his mother? What is the basis of experimental theater? Can we all answer the question about what is our life task, maybe by learning from our fuckups How important in life is coincidence? How did John get to Prague? What is tantra about? {Tip, it is not about a massage with a happy ending?Co je pro Johna fuckup? Jaký měl vztah se svou matkou? Co je základ experimentálního divadla? Je to opravdu pravé divadlo?

Título: Traços e devires de um corpo cênico Autor: Alice Stefânia Curi Editora: Editora Dulcina, 2013 ISBN 8565188027, 9788565188029 Num. págs. 232 páginas Este livro é resultado de pesquisa de doutoramento cujo objetivo foi oportunizar espaços de diálogo criativo entre corpo, cena e princípios capturados no universo imaginário e de práticas taoístas, de origem chinesa. Uma das principais motivações para buscar matrizes taoístas para fomentar o processo criativo do ator liga-se aqui à abrangência desse saber, inclusive à sua reverberação em questões parcialmente desconsideradas pela tradição filosófica europeia. Aspectos ligados à energia ou usualmente relacionados a fatores extrassensoriais e até espirituais, que, no pensamento taoísta, articulam-se e transitam com outros de natureza mais estruturada e material, são de suma importância para o trabalho do ator. Vários nomes ligados à cena têm trazido em sua pesquisa discussões dessa natureza, como Antonin Artaud, Jerzy Grotowski, Eugênio Barba, Kazuo Ohno, para citar apenas alguns.

Daniel Dombrowski is currently living at a buddhist monastery in the southern US, volunteering on the organic farm. In addition to acting, singing, and dancing since he was 7 years old, this talented being is also a musician and visual artist devoted to uncovering the new world. In our chat we dive into Daniels passion about ecstatic dance and I learn about its possibilities for healing trauma stored in the physical and spiritual body. Daniel got into ecstatic dance through a man named Jerzy Grotowski, a polish theatre director who’s work and teachings have impacted his life. I'm so certain Daniel is here to spread his sunshine around through teaching and I hope this episode brings you as much joy as I received recording it.

Are we living in a failed state? And if so, so what? Between the environment, pandemic, and everything else that 2020 has given us, I think it's probably high time that we look at ourselves in the mirror and decide what's really important. And if you're of a spiritual or metaprogrammatical bent, you could probably learn a thing or several from Antero Alli. His latest book, State of Emergence, covers his experiments in group ritual. It's one part Jerzy Grotowski, one part Carl Jung, and 100% mind-blowing.

In den 1960er-Jahren verschaffen sich Theatermacher Raum für ihre Utopien. Die Suche nach neuen Theaterformen findet nicht mehr allein auf der Bühne statt. Wer bin ich? Woher komme ich? Was ist das Leben? Das waren Fragen, mit denen sich die Theateravantgarde der 1960er-Jahre auseinandersetzte, denn für sie war das Theater eine Reise zum Menschen. Ausgehend von einer performativen Ausdeutung von Shakespeares "Der Sturm" reflektiert Evelyn Dörr Theateransätze von Peter Brook und Jerzy Grotowski: ihre Schauspielmethoden, ihre Utopien und Visionen vor dem Hintergrund von Krieg und Atombombenangst.

Fitzcarraldo 4, domingo 31 de Mayo, la bruma londinense invade Asturias, reconozcámoslo; crecimos entre la niebla. Comienza la selección musical con el tema “Six Days” de Dj Shadow, un mashup, la voz de una canción de los 70 se mezcla con otra canción con un nuevo ritmo, el video musical fue dirigido por Wong Kar Wai. El resultado elegancia y sofisticación. Seguimos con la sección de “Novedades Eloína” suena “We wait” de los Other Lives, la banda Oklahoma saca nuevo disco después de cinco años, música americana, una canción con aroma a spaguetti western,con coros y melodías a lo Ennio Morricone. Continuamos con el lejano oeste, un oeste reinventado y modernizado desde Chicago por Tenci con su single "Forgot My Horse's Name.” Una canción ideal para una película de Howard Hawks. Nos está quedando un programa muy vaquero. Es el momento de las chicas de Es, que se autodefinen como una banda de synth-punk mutante para nuestro presente distópico, pusimos “Chemical” de su primer LP “Less of Everything” que acaba de salir, letras combativas, atmósferas oscuras, amateurismo que se compensa con autenticidad y actitud. Es hora de dejar atrás las canciones lánguidas, es hora del rock& roll de toda la vida con la banda Reigning Sound liderada por Greg Cartwright, el tema es “Stormy weather”, demasiados días soleados y claro, nos entra la añoranza de los tiempos tormentosos, ¿Cuándo deja ser el buen tiempo, buen tiempo? No hay nada como un buen pildorazo rock, un buen riff de guitarra, una voz potente, y unas buenas palmas. Terminamos la selección musical de hoy con “Hasta la vista “ de las Dream Wife, un grupo de punk rock londinense capitaneado por tres mujeres, que saca disco el 3 de junio. Dream wife (esposa soñada) un nombre irónico, letras feministas y reivindicativas. Traducciones y adaptaciones. La película de la que charlamos hoy es “Mi cena con André” de Louis Malle. Una película que relata el encuentro de dos viejos amigos que después de mucho tiempo quedan para cenar. Ellos son; Wallace Shawn yAndre Gregory, el primero es un escritor y dramaturgo, que para sobrevivir actúa en pequeños papeles, y el segundo es un afamado director teatral que llevaba desaparecido cinco años, los dos, Wallace y André se interpretan a sí mismos (o no), la película recoge el dialogo que se establece entre ellos durante la velada. Andre le habla de sus experiencias y viajes durante esos cinco años; su estancia en Polonia con su amigo Jerzy Grotowski y un grupo de actores polacos en un bosque, viviendo experiencias teatrales límite, improvisaciones grupales, ceremonias. Luego relata su vida en una comuna escocesa, más tarde acompañado por un monje tibetano marcha al desierto del Sahara en busca de inspiración para realizar un montaje sobre “El Principito”. Cuenta todo un periplo vital de búsqueda ante la mirada perpleja de Wallace. Una necesidad en Andre de buscar algo e intentar sentir. Wallace, ve más el sentido de la vida en los actos cotidianos. Según Andre, hacemos las cosas sin pensar, sin sentir, nos movemos por unas metas ilusorias. Cada acción nuestra debería ser como una oración. En realidad, es imposible ser intenso en todo lo que haces. El teatro de Brech y las películas de Marvel. “Mi cena…” es un proyecto de Wallace Shawn y Andre Gregory, al que luego se sumo Louis Malle.. Muchas horas de conversaciones entre los dos para elaborar el guion final. Malle conseguí que la película fluya a pesar de los arriesgado de la propuesta que pudiera parecer en un principio la antítesis de lo fílmico. Otras películas muy habladas, Eric Romher, la trilogía de Before.. El Nueva York de los 80 con la música de Erik Satie los valores cinematográficos de una gran película … algunas cuestiones por resolver ¿Las comodidades son peligrosas? Somos niños aburridos y mimados, y alguien aburrido es alguien incapaz de decir No…

Wykład profesor Anny Wyki o kulturze alternatywnej w Polsce, Collegium Civitas [8 listopada 2009 r.] Wykład przeprowadzony 8 listopada 2009 r. w Collegium Civitas w ramach cyklu „Współczesne społeczeństwa: Polska – Europa – Świat. Kultura, mentalność, system wartości.” Kultura alternatywna zaczęła pojawiać się w Polsce w latach 70. U jej podłoża leżą m.in. kontrast między światem zewnętrznym i rzeczywistym, dotkliwy w okresie PRLu, chęć rozwoju wewnętrznego, docenianie wartości kontaktów międzyludzkich, poczucie jedności z naturą, indywidualna sprawczość, a także kwestionowanie wartości posiadania dóbr, na rzecz głębszego rozwoju. Rozwój kultury alternatywnej podzielić można na trzy etapy. Pierwsza faza to moment negacji, przy jednoczesnym braku świadomości współodczuwania tej negacji przez innych ludzi, w drugiej fazie pojawia się poczucie wspólnoty, trzeci etap jest fazą w której wspólne wartości są znane i prowadzą do proponowania alternatywy i konstruktywnych działań. Indywidualne podejście i stawianie na rozwój jednostki, sprawiły że wytworzył się alternatywny styl życia, w którym dążono do spójności między wyznawanymi wartościami, a ich realizacją. Było to przeciwstawienie się rzeczywistości powojennego świata. Głód wartości duchowych, chęć reedukacji, dezalienacji i samorealizacji, uwzględniającej dobro drugiego człowieka, prowadziły do powstania grup i komun wspierających swoje działania. Ważną postacią skupiającą poszukujących alternatywy był Jerzy Grotowski. Kontynuatorami praktyki kultury czynnej i twórczego stosunku do życia i działalności, jest wiele działających nadal środowisk m.in. Ośrodek „Pogranicze – sztuk, kultur, narodów”, Fundacja „Muzyka Kresów”, Stowarzyszenie „Tratwa”, a także teatry: Studium Teatralne, Chorea, Teatr Wiejski Węgajty, Gardzienice. Wykład nakreśla powstanie kultury alternatywnej i jej losy na przestrzeni dekad, aż do dnia dzisiejszego. Pokazuje najważniejsze idee, praktyki, cechy i motywy powstawania ruchów alternatywnych. Przybliża postaci ważne dla alternatywnej kultury m. in. działalność i poglądy Jerzego Grotowskiego.

Today she is an actor (most recently seen in the world premiere of Jessica Dickey's The Convent as the Mother Abbess), teacher, and producer. She is the artistic director of Weathervane Theater, founder of piecebypiece productions, and a member of Rising Phoenix Rep.I met Wendy when she was teaching acting at the Experimental Theater Wing, at NYU where she also studied as an undergrad during the studio's early years. She went on to study with Jerzy Grotowski and Joseph Chaikin. We talk about her teachers over the years, and she reveals the challenges she faced early on. We talk about the importance of the physical body: breath, spine, groin - as a part of the instrument, and how we should all "get into our animal."---Thank you to Jim Swonger @ Cleveland Play House for allowing me to use their sound studio to record the intro!Music credit: David HilowitzSupport the show (https://www.patreon.com/upstageleft)

By Michael Lueger, Piotr Wołodźko. We welcome back Stories from the Eastern West for Part 2 of their exploration of the life and work of Polish theatre director Jerzy Grotowski.
After having to leave Poland, Grotowski continued his ground-breaking work in the United States, before finding a permanent home in Pontedera, Italy. There he began work on Art as Vehicle, the final stage of his work at the newly-established Workcenter. This work, based around songs of tradition and objective movements, arranged into performance structures, is done more or less in secrecy, away from the prying eyes of the media and mainstream theatrical world. In the late 1990s, the Workcenter started to show its work to select groups of people, and open itself to the world. Listen to Part 2 of our episode on Jerzy Grotowski to find out for yourself what happened there, and what goes on at the Workcenter of Jerzy Grotowski and Thomas Richards today… You can catch up with Part 1 of this story here. Both these episodes are a Stories From The Eastern West collaboration with the Theatre History Podcast, produced by Howlround Theatre Commons, a free and open platform for theatremakers worldwide, based in Boston, Massachusetts.

Wysłuchaj rozmowy na temat wystąpień publicznych. Nasze ciało, głos, mimika i gesty są jak zwierciadło – ukazują aktualną prawdę. Warunkiem dobrych wystąpień jest spójność. Jeśli w treści, którą przedstawiasz są wartości, które wyznajesz, będzie Ci łatwiej. Jeśli treść jest niespójna z Tobą, fałsz zawsze znajdzie jakąś drogę by się ujawnić a Twoje ciało to wszystkim objawi. Żeby tego uniknąć możesz zostać aktorem. Słuchając rozmowy dowiesz się: Czym są porywające wystąpienia publiczne? Co o wystąpieniach i grze aktorskiej mówił Mistrz Stanisławski? Poznasz takie pojęcia jak impostacja, pauza, przerzutnia, dykcja, emisja głosu? “Storytelling”, “Historia Osobista”, “Podróż Bohatera” – modne słowa czy rzeczywiste narzędzia? Co sądzili o pracy z ciałem Jerzy Grotowski, Jan Machulski, Stefan Niedziałkowski? O “użyczaniu osobowości”, “szlachetnym oszustwie wielkiej literatury” i roli aktora.
Jerzy Grotowski (1933-1999) undoubtedly had a profound influence on the transformation of contemporary theatre over the last 40 years. Starting out as a young director in the Polish provinces, he soon realised that for theatre to reach its true potential as a communion between actor and spectator and survive in the age of mass entertainment, the actor should attain complete mastery over their craft. His small group of actors committed to intensive daily training sessions to achieve this, while Grotowski began to radically experiment with theatrical texts in order to achieve his vision. But having achieved international recognition for his ground-breaking productions in the mid to late 1960s, he decided to leave theatre behind and start all over again…..

By Michael Lueger, Piotr Wołodźko. The Theatre History Podcast is proud to partner with Stories from the Eastern West to present the first of a two-part episode on the life and work of revolutionary theatre director Jerzy Grotowski.
Our special guest is famed NYC acting coach Anthony Abeson who has worked with Jennifer Aniston and countless other well known stars. Anthony's high school summers were always spent in summer stock, acting and directing along with all the other jobs summer theatre required: stage managing, set construction, lighting design, etc. Even teaching surfaced then; his earliest memory is of writing the name "Konstantin S. Stanislavski" on a blackboard in front of bewildered children's theatre apprentices. During his college years at Columbia University he made his off-Broadway debut as an actor and assistant director at the Sheridan Square Playhouse in a repertory theatre whose director first introduced him to Lee Strasberg and the Actors Studio. He was unable to attend his graduation having been appointed by the Queen Elizabeth II Arts Council to serve as a resident actor and director of the Canterbury Theatre Company, in Christchurch, New Zealand, that country's first international, professional theatre, where he worked with actors from all over the UK. As a 22-year-old American it was a challenge to direct actors whose previous director had been Laurence Olivier. Anthony's teaching continued in New Zealand where he also served as director of the Experimental Theatre Laboratory of the Christchurch Academy of Dramatic Arts, the country's first training academy. In the late '60's he began his long collaboration with Jerzy Grotowski, first as an actor at the Centre Dramatique National du Sud-Est in Aix-en-Provence, France, and later, in the early '70's as a participant/assistant in Grotowski's first "Special Project" in a forest outside of Philadelphia. Further collaboration occurred under the auspices of the Instityut Aktora in Wroclaw and Brzezinka, Poland. In 1972 he accepted an invitation to join Peter Brook (former director of the Royal Shakespeare Company) at his Centre International de Recherche Theatrale in Paris, where he participated as an actor in the Centre's exploration of the effect of non-linear language on the process of the actor. The research was facilitated by the deliberate inclusion of actors from Japan, Africa, France,etc. with hardly any common language between them. Instead, during Anthony's stay, the verbal impulse was channeled into ancient Greek and /or bird calls. Texts were supplied by Ted Hughes, Sylvia Plath's husband, a distinguished poet who went on to become the Poet Laureate of England. During the late '60's and early '70's, Anthony started a theatre company, the Ensemble Theatre Laboratory, one of whose earliest members was the wonderful actor/monologist Spalding Gray, whose richly entertaining version of their tour to Missouri of their production of "The Tower of Babel" can be found in his "A Personal History of the American Theatre." During this time, Anthony continued to be exposed to Lee Strasberg and the Actors Studio, becoming one of the youngest people ever to address a special session with Lee. In 1973 Anthony started another theatre company, this time in Washington, D. C. : The Washington Theatre Laboratory with funding from the National Endowment for the Arts and the D. C. Arts Commission. Their training program marked the start of many careers including that of actresses Caroline Aaron and Karen Allen. Selected as a seminal archetype of the experimental theatre movement in America, its archival materials are housed in the permanent collection of The Jerome Lawrence and Robert E. Lee Theatre Research Institute at Ohio State University. Returning to New York, Anthony studied with Stella Adler at her conservatory and joined the faculty of the Drama Department of the High School for the Performing Arts (the "Fame" school) where he first worked with Esai Morales and Jennifer Aniston, among many talented others. Jennifer, who went on to study in Anthony's adult classes before leaving for LA, wrote of one of her experiences with him in Marlo Thomas's book: "The Right Wo...

It is said that the inherent challenges of being an actor will rather naturally weed out those without the true bug in their system. If this is true, Matt Mitler must be completely consumed by it. His ambition though is not for fame nor fortune, as his interest in those conventional notions of success has waned as he and his work have matured. Instead, it is the tantalizing quest for truth, expansion and - perhaps most of all - the urgent need to serve others using his art. Imagine this: a group of actors wholly dedicated to the audience - be it in a theater, church or hospital - rather then the aggrandizement of themselves or the whole. In your picture, be certain that the troupe is imminently skilled, expressive, nimble and daring - all at once. This is Matt Mitler's utopia of sorts, his beloved group Dzieci Theatre, laden with some of the finest performers in New York City (including Matt himself). Dzieci's aim is to utilize theater and performance as a means for the personal evolution of the actor and the blooming of the heart in the audience. In this interview, we discuss the evolution of Matt's art and how seemingly every aspect of his career and the evolution of Dzieci has existed outside of the traditional box. We explore how Matt's amazing path has been in service to a hidden taste for truth, and that by trusting the calling of sorts, Matt's journey has brought him all sorts of surprises and connections. We also probe Matt's remarkable history having studied with directors Jerzy Grotowski & Eugenio Barba, the actor Ryszard Cieslak, humanistic psychologist Carl Rogers and more. Ultimately, this is a story of following one's unique taste for truth, and when mixed with a little faith, how this simple approach creates something remarkable, rich and imminently meaningful. Enjoy! The post OS43: Matt Mitler – Theater, Transformation & The Pursuit Of Truth appeared first on Ownstream.
Libro de Jerzy Grotowski, Miradas desde Latinoamérica
Live Tue. Jan. 31st, 2017 8pm EST on Para-X-Radio.com Andrieh Vitimus and Jason M. Colwell welcome Antero Alli back for a second week, because we are so impressed by his work. Antero will be talking to us about his work on The Eight-Circuit Brain. The Eight-Circuit Brain advances and expands the material in Alli’s groundbreaking book, Angel Tech, a compendium of techniques and practical applications based on Dr. Timothy Leary’s 8-Circuit Brain model. After more than twenty years of research and experimentation, Antero’s earlier findings are significantly updated and enriched in this new body of work. In 1977 Antero was inspired by the Paratheatre of Jerzy Grotowski and over the next four decades, he combined his early theatre experience and training (see below) towards the creation of his own paratheatre medium — as documented in his book, “Towards an Archeology of the Soul” (Vertical Pool, 2003), in four videos (1992-2012), and in academia by Nicoletta Isar, Professor at the Institute of Art History,Copenhagen University (2008). Between 1975 and 2005, Antero wrote, directed, produced and performed in numerous experimental theatre productions. In 2005, Antero stopped creating theatre and wrote and directed a series of feature-length art films — including “The Greater Circulation” (2005; 93 min) a critically acclaimed cinematic treatment of Rainer Maria Rilke’s “Requiem for a Friend“, “The Invisible Forest” (2008; 111 min) featuring the radical ideas of French Surrealist, Antonin Artaud, “To Dream of Falling Upwards“(2011; 120 min), exploring the occult worlds of rural and urban sorcery and “The Book of Jane” (2013; 115 min.), an urban fable of Feminine initiation. In late 2015 Antero ended his 23-year era of filmmaking and returned to his roots in experimental theatre in Portland Oregon where he also continues his paratheatre group work.

This video focuses on a Grotowski inspired approach to the character of Ophelia. Created by Katie Mitchell, curated by Kate Bailey for the V&A in partnership with the National Theatre.
Jim Simpson, artistic director of New York's Off-Off-Broadway The Flea Theater, charts the company's 15 year journey from a collective meant to last for only five years to an ongoing institution on the verge of moving to a home that they own. Along the way, he tells about his years as a child actor in Honolulu appearing in touring musicals with stars such as John Raitt; his teenage summer spent studying with landmark Polish director and theorist Jerzy Grotowski; the highly politicized spirit of the Boston University theatre program during his time there; bridging the Robert Brustein and Lloyd Richards eras while in graduate school at Yale, including Richards' quashing of Simpson's all-male "Hamlet"; his ongoing development of the play "Benten Kozo" across multiple productions; his years as a freelancer at theatres including Williamstown and Hartford Stage; his forays into commercial runs both successful ("Nixon's Nixon") and incomplete ("Citizen Tom Paine"); why The Flea's central tenets included clean dressing rooms for the actors and bathrooms for the patrons; the company's ongoing relationship with playwrights, notably A.R. Gurney; and how the 9/11 tragedy nearly closed the theatre and then, largely thanks to "The Guys", spurred it into a new era; whether the presence of stars at The Flea, including Simpson's wife Sigourney Weaver, as well as John Lithgow and Marisa Tomei, has given them a profile beyond that of the customary downtown house; and why The Flea's resident young company, The Bats, forces the theatre to keep moving on to new challenges. Original air date - November 3, 2010.
