Audacious Raw Theater Year 7: Surf & Turf 

About

Catherine Glynn’s A.R.T. (Audacious Raw Theater) and Lanesboro Arts
proudly present Audacious Raw Theatre Year 7: Surf & Turf on Friday,
July 14th at 7:00 p.m. and Sunday, July 16th at 1:00 p.m. at the North
Campfire Circle at Eagle Bluff Environmental Learning Center.

In honor of A.R.T. (Audacious Raw Theater) celebrating its 7th Year
in partnership with Lanesboro Arts, Artistic Director Catherine Glynn
has developed a new concept for the next stage in the company’s
evolution. Having envisioned A.R.T. as a bridge organization, this
seventh season will again feature a special partnership with Eagle Bluff
Environmental Learning Center.

This year’s theme of Common Ground will take on stories and
performances that, at first glance, may seem polarizing in nature: Land
Stewardship & Climate Change, Reproductive Rights, and The Second
Amendment. As ARTists, the participating members actively seek to
cultivate and create stories from a wide range and diverse set of
people. They aim to reflect reality in fragments and fractals in order
to share their performances on common ground for the common good within
the community.

To make the area more accessible for all people, Eagle Bluff will
provide gator rides to the campfire circle for those who need to utilize
it. There will also be other seating in addition to the wooden benches
around the fire ring. There may also be talk-back time following
performances, although the performance will not continue after sunset.

Jerome Yorke is a theatre maker and educator at the
University of Dayton where he teaches theatre appreciation, acting,
voice, and movement. In 2015, his performance-based study of clown as
shaman began with a solo performance entitled Welcome Goodbye and
premiered for the University of Dayton’s Theatre, Dance, and
Performance Technology Program. While using puppets in collaboration
with Zoot Theatre Co., his directorial debut at UD, And A Child Shall Lead, was chosen by Russell Florence as the region’s best collegiate production of a play for the 2015-2016 performance season.

Catie Glynn is a theatre artist who makes her home
in Lanesboro with her husband Jeremy. She also serves as an executive
presence and leadership coach for Fortune 500 companies worldwide. She
