“We have so many false authorities in our world. My only authority is the voice of my own soul. It has never failed me.”

–Tanya Taylor Rubinstein

 

Project Life Stories
Performances for the Soul
Project Life Stories
is devoted to the expression and presentation of “Stories of the Soul” through monologue, solo performance and writing workshops, public performances, books, videos and other media.

Tanya Taylor Rubinstein speaks about Solo Performance for an Emerging World: “It is my experience that solo performance is truly on it’s way to becoming the 'Theater of Now'. It is an invitation for both performer and audience members to connect to deep experience, presence and authenticity. Without the artifice inherent in traditional theater, the performer has the freedom and support to actualize their full vision as both an artist and human being. The offering can be profound and life changing for audience members and performer alike.

"In this time of great global change, I know that it is both timely and vastly important for individuals to offer their wisdom and stories to the world. Solo Performance and Engaged Storytelling are underutilized vehicles that have vast power and potential for transforming our lives and changing the world that hears these authentic stories."

The Monologue Process
"The monologue work is what gives us the container to meet and ultimately release our suffering. In our writing workshops people are encouraged to experience their pain fully through plunging into the depths of their emotional body. In the middle part of the process I guide people into their own creativity to create a monologue that allows them to tell a story in relationship to a trauma or challenge that they faced."

"The creative process itself is an alchemical one and transforms the participants' personal burden as they begin to re-frame their experience to share it with an audience. Wisdom and spiritual insights begin to emerge as they write through their emotions toward a higher level of consciousness. The intense emotions begin to subside as they are validated and released.

"The final aspect of the process is to allow the participants to stand on a stage in a public venue and speak their stories to an audience. The mutual healing happens as people  deeply express and are deeply heard."

Project Life Stories offers you workshop, Wisdom Videos and monologue services that will reach into your heart and transform your story into insight.
