My Story

Artist Caregivers Create Theatre

with their Families about their Families

- and Change All the 'Characters' in the Process.

That's my story in a nutshell.

My mom was diagnosed at age 67. She's now almost 75. I used to hate her. Now I love her. I enjoy her - we have more fun now than ever. (No, not always.)

Favourite scene in "Forgetful Not Forgotten": Dad can't find the baby held in front of him.

Imagiscape Theatre develops Inspired Economies.

Caregivers often find themselves playing a role they don't like, in a script nobody likes. Imagiscape helps caregivers be aware of the possibilities and potential of the drama they are in so they will have confidence when 'the curtain opens' - every day.

"Advancing Your Play" helps you change the story you enact and transform from creature of habit to creator of habits.

"With Cane, I'm Able" questions how the "technologies" of humor and imagination can liberate. Humor refuses to suffer the slings and arrows of reality. Humor keeps life in play. We can be Cain & Abel - together at last.

"Heal Thyself" tests the power of the creative process to transform caregiving – and the caregiver.

"The Creative Workout" works our imagination, body, spirit and voice, while we participate in Creation – gardening, manufacturing, computing...

"Caregivers of the Planet" addresses conflicts between caring for people and for the planet, connects caregiving and environmental organizations, and makes becoming ecological a great activity for partners in care. Managing homes as systems grows neural connections and elevates minds to holistic height. So: care for the planet by caring for people; and care for people by caring for the planet, together.

Imagiscape provides training & tools for performing your real live drama.
