Passion vs. Intimacy | Family & Lovers
A clown show. Or Books and Music
Audience-Interactive Physical Theater about the difference between passion and intimacy, and the wild heart, mind, andbody journey to attaining and sharing both. The main character learns passion but not intimacy from her family, then goes out on her life-path learning intimacy, with diversely odd and just-like-everybody-else ups and downs, crashes andcelebrations. She ultimately brings intimacy home.
A funny work about a serious thing, this show aims to also evoke desire for family connection, deeper authenticity, more outrageous expression, and immense self-love in the audience, as they, too, unite in love and creativity.
