FILM SCREENING -- One Night Only!
"THE INVISIBLE FOREST" by Antero Alli
Friday Sept. 10th, 8pm, $6. Filmmaker in person.
A.T.A., 992 Valencia (nr 21st St) San Francisco
A theater director, Alex (played by Antero Alli), brings a troupe of nine actors to a remote forest to engage in paratheatrical work. Since, in real life, Alli is engaged in paratheatrical research, it becomes obvious that the film’s fictional story is constructed out of documentary elements.
The powerfully grounded and elemental performances of the entire cast make their scenes particularly gripping which often look so real they could be from a dream. In fact, it is never made clear which of the altered states these scenes come from: paratheatrical work, hypnosis, dreams, or induced trance states. -- from the 4-star review by David Finkelstein for filmthreat.com (click the above image for more event details)

AUTUMN 2010 -- RITUAL ACTIONS Lab (VETS ONLY)
SEPT 20 thru NOV 15. NINE MONDAY NIGHTS. 8-11PM.
This Lab represents advanced paratheatre work. Through autonomous sourcework (sources chosen by participants) our intention will be finding ritual actions -- those movements, sounds, gestures, and actions giving expression and articulation of the innate purpose or function of each source we access. Paratheatre vets with at least five labs behind them are encouraged to inquire. Limited to eight.
