Come to the stage between two worlds - come to the Theatre of the Imagination. On this 12-part, live performance series, bestselling author and beloved cantadora (keeper of the old stories) Clarissa Pinkola Estes shares the work of her lifetime: myths, tales, and poems with the power to nourish and heal. Contained within Theatre of the Imagination are the great universal themes - tales of loss and resurrection, of love and sacrifice, of the courage to survive - yet it is as if Dr. Estes is speaking only to you. With words that weave in and out of the interior and exterior worlds, she creates an amazing fabric of the purest wisdom - fought for, won, and preserved to teach all generations "that which is most worth knowing." You will hear more than 40 original poems, archetypal insights, and dozens of strengthening stories from Dr. Estes" own family oral traditions. Dr. Estes teaches that each story holds a key to a deeper self-knowing. She writes: "Stories cut fine wide doors in previous blank walls, openings that lead to the dreamland, that lead to love and learning, that lead us back to our own real lives." Presented in her one-of-a-kind lyrical style, Theatre of the Imagination seats you in the front row at these performances of a lifetime.
