Ceremony

An award-winning story of love, fear and Ayahuasca. Grappling with heart break and depression, Michael quits his job in the midst of the Great Recession and finds himself in Peru drinking a noxious tea as a shaman looks on with a smile. How far will he go to find transformation? And will he be able to find his way back? LA Weekly Pick of the Week and Winner, Outstanding Solo Performance (2014 San Diego Fringe)

Winner, Duende Distinction for Playwriting "An occasion to savor and certainly not to miss." - LAist

"CEREMONY" is an intensely personal story that grapples with universal themes of isolation, self doubt and coming of age in the context of a shamanic medicine ceremony. It premiered at the Hollywood Fringe Festival last year where it garnered rave reviews and awards including the Duende Distinction for Playwriting, a Best of Fringe Extention and a nomination for Best Solo Show. LAist called the production "Absolutely wonderful. . .a worthy lineal descendant of Spalding Gray's Swimming to Cambodia, this Ceremony is an occasion to savor and certainly not to miss" and the LA Weekly designated the show its Pick of the Week and one of the 20 Best Things to Do in LA.
