Partial Background on Imagiscape Theatre:

 

 

Caregiving takes Centre Stage 
  4.5 stars  - Edmonton Journal 

           Heal Thyself, a radical dance-drama about family care-giving, was fashioned from the real-life family dilemmas of the author/performers Carlynn Reed and Jonathon Neville.  
The evening also includes excerpts from the soon-to-be-released Heal Thyself documentary by filmmaker Danny Wilson.

           Heal Thyself uniquely captures the drama of a national concern: caring for caregivers.  Organizations are already planning to use the project for workshops and conferences.  Heal Thyself is a wide-reaching opportunity for consciousness-raising in the general public, and above all, for equipping and affirming family caregivers.

           The show is directed by alternative-theatre veteran Dennis Hassell (founder of Brookstone Theatre, 14 Dora Award nominations), with music by Subtonic Monks co-founder Peter Jarvis.  Heal Thyself is produced by Imagiscape Theatre and is a project of the charitable arts society IMAGO. 

Heal Thyself premiered November 3-5 at 
The Winchester Street Theatre in Toronto, 
before beginning its national touring programme.

(from the Workshop Tour)

"With creative imagination, anyone can live a rich life regardless of constraints."
So we profess.
Then Alzheimer's strikes Jonathon's mom and mysterious pain cripples Carlynn's son.
Overwhelmed by the strain in our homes, to our families we propose:
"Let's do a project together, where the project is a play, and the play is about us." 
The result is explosive drama, surprising humour, enthralling music, and ravishing dance.

Heal Thyself weaves our stories into a strange and stunning tapestry of hope.
