*** NY FRINGE FESTIVAL MAGIC ALERT!!! ***
C) "Dancing With Ghosts" (August 15th, 16th, 18th, 19th & 21st)
MNM's own Harley Newman, will debut "Dancing With Ghosts", at the
13th NY International Fringe Festival.
Harley was named after his uncle, a story-telling botanist, adopted
brother to the shaman in a tribe of head-hunters. Harley's personal
quest for more stories has led him into obscure research libraries,
the back rooms of anthropology museums, and a modern-day
exploration of the world of the shaman.
At the feathered edges of history, the shaman was the educated
person. The shaman''s magic made the crops grow, the village
thrive. The shaman was healer, judge, and priest, rolled into one.
His skills were magic, stunt, storytelling, and manipulation of
perceptions. Superstition and philosophy were tools with which he
wove answers to questions they asked in the dark, gave meaning to
things they did in the light.
Join Harley Newman for an evening of multi-media, spoken word, and
ritual from around the world. It''s about us and our ancestors,
about kissing the moon, and "Dancing With Ghosts".
