Rebecca Fisher- 'The Magnificence of the Disaster'
9/30 @ 8:30pm & 9/28 @ 7:00pm
w/ Erica Lann-Clark
Rebecca Fisher's family is from Memphis: old money, country clubs, a big house with white pillars and black maids. And her mother's been murdered. And her brother has died of a drug overdose. But a Southerner knows how to luxuriate in catastrophe. In 'The Magnificence of the Disaster', Fisher takes the emotional curves on two wheels, the tires screeching with laughter, and drives the audience directly into the hearts of her eccentric and deeply troubled characters.
Erica Lann-Clark 'A Feast for Fools'
9/30 @ 8:30pm & 9/28 @ 7:00pm
w/ Rebecca Fisher
Any way you slice it, we're all fools for love.
Come find out what the bard meant when he wrote, 'Let me not to the marriage of true minds admit impediments. Love is not love which alters when it alteration finds, or bends with the remover to remove. If this be error and upon me proved, I never writ, nor no man ever loved.' I'll tell you no lies. These are true love stories and if they didn't happen that way, they should have.
Erica grew up listening. In a Brooklyn apartment, the tiny yellow kitchen brimmed with laughter and tears as her immigrant mama and papa spun tales to bring their history alive. For Erica's family, everything that happened was good starter dough for future stories. These kitchen tales inspired in Erica a passion for the healing power of story.
ERICALANN-CLARKStorytellerSanta Cruz, In her twenties, Erica worked in New York's off-Broadway, trained at The HB Studio and studied playwriting under Edward Albee. One of her plays won a prestigious prize. Then along came a divorce and economics silenced art for twenty years. Erica raised a family, supporting them as a teacher and an alternative healer.
Her children grown and gone, Erica threw caution to the winds. She became a storyteller. In the sixteen years since then, she has entertained audiences across the country and in Canada, Thailand, Singapore, and Hawaii. She's been a featured teller at many storytelling festivals, including Timpanogos Festival, Bay Area Storytelling Festival, Sierra Festival, and the Exchange Place
Los Angles and San Francisco. Erica's way of telling brings her audiences into the immediacy of storytelling where the teller disappears from view as the story takes hold. In her work, she blends traditional folklore and original stories, spicing her tales with an instinct for rambunctious humor and an ear for authentic voices. She loves to work at the crossroad where story meets theater.
