Well, I actually finished another part of this rather crazy journey. Last week I graduated with a PhD. The only word I've been able to muster around this is "weird" hahaha. Although I'm not sure at the moment where the universe needs me next, I have to say, I really love where my research has taken me. I created a Metissage Circle Theatre Script entitled "To Practice Vulnerability?" It's intended to be read around a table, like a board meeting or something, without rehearsal by a group of interested people who do not have to be actors by any stretch. It gently invites the readers to consider a different way of looking at the purpose of education today and asks whether we need to be addressing the vulnerability of every student more officially, out loud and up front, in our schools. Here's the link to the dissertation if you are interested. The script starts in the middle.
Dissertation: Theatre as Curriculum to Practice Vulnerability Like I said, I'm not sure where this is taking me, but I guess that's kind of the exciting part of it all...a new adventure into the unknown, taking me past my current imagination. That's where you find the new perspectives. That's where the answers lie...along with more questions...don't you think? I mean, we have to keep asking questions of our status quo to learn...to keep us conscious of choices and decisions...not for judgment or shame but for expansion of our hearts, minds, and spirits...for ourselves and for those around us.
