David Gagnon Walker: This Is the Story of the Child Ruled by Fear, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Blurb

David has written a play for himself and a gathering of friends and strangers to read together out loud. It tells the story of the rise and fall of an imaginary civilization in an imaginary land. Some of it is fact, some fiction. But at any point you may be part of a Greek chorus, playing a main character, or collectively confronting your fears about a world on the verge of collapse. Are you ready to take a leap of faith? It's okay if you feel nervous. David is nervous too. With so much to be fearful of these days, it's best to brave this thing together.
An ingenious exercise in interactive storytelling, This Is The Story of the Child Ruled by Fear is a poetic and participatory fable about how to live with the slowly unfolding emergencies of our time. Playwright David Gagnon Walker guides us through an enchanting performance ritual that provides a communal, cathartic release for those prone to anxiety, fear, and depression. It's an invitation to share the joys of creating a story together so that maybe we can all feel less alone.
