Telling
the New/Ancient Story
Outreach
and Edu-tainment through Transmedia
From Wikipedia: “Transmedia Storytelling - is the
technique of telling a single story or story
experience across multiple platforms
and formats using current digital technologies.”
Using Storytelling, Music, the Arts, New Media (a Transmedia approach), The Return will encourage individuals,
businesses, groups and communities to develop a positive vision of their future.
They will also be given the practical
tools, resources, and training to implement those visions in their lives and their
communities.
Utilizing an improvisational, interactive musical theater Piece, titled,
The Shift, as a stepping off point, a
troupe of performers, trained in theater, sound healing, movement, and various
ancient and sacred performance art and healing techniques, will perform an
ongoing, evolving story that inspires a positive vision of the future and
illustrates the awakening process.
The story of The Shift illustrates
what happens when people resist change, awakening and spiritual growth. The Plot and Characters mirror what is
happening in the real world. The Shift
will be an evolving and ongoing record and expression of real world people, events
and developments.

America."
