SUMMARY:Opera Action Figures Installation
DESCRIPTION:Stop motion animations by Thetford based twins sisters Amy and Terry Lawrence on display alongside their sets and figurines.\nARTIST STATEMENT\nWe loved the Metropolitan Opera’s production of Akhnaten so much we decided to make an animated version. In the spirit of making it up as we went along\, we sewed costumes\, built a set\, lit it and filmed it. Amy had made stop-action animation before but never with the small wooden dolls called artist’s mannequins. We had to learn how these faceless dolls could express emotion–through body language\, the tilt of a head\, how they walked\, climbed stairs or juggled. There was lots of juggling. \nThe process was so engrossing we began looking for other music we loved so we could create a story to go with it (Gershwin Station)\, or a story we loved (The Magic Doll) that needed music to fit. (Sibelius\, who knew?)  The Prisoner’s Song was a 1920s recording that told its own story. Thank You\, Mr. Sondheim was a tribute featuring sets and characters from 18 shows in four minutes. \nAnimation allows Terry’s theatre background to blend with Amy’s film background. Terry can build models and sets while Amy experiments with pans\, tilts and action-movie montages (Ninja Nannies—note the obscure but wonderful Bob Seger score). It’s always about music and story. The only question is whether we’re making music videos (Moon Buggy) or musicals? \nABOUT THE ARTISTS\nTerry Lawrence has an MFA in Theatre/Set Design and experience in model-making\, props and set painting. She has found that directing for the stage helps when it comes to moving little wooden people around. \nAmy Lawrence is a former professor of Film and Television at Dartmouth College. She has made animated films in several old-school formats including fabric shot on film\, needlepoint animated in Photoshop\, and puppet films made with Dragon. She currently makes films with her sister in their mom’s basement.

SUMMARY:Story JAM: Bi-Monthly Storytelling Circle
DESCRIPTION:This month’s theme is: Crossed wires: stories about miscommunications\, misunderstandings\, and confusion.\nIn a society increasingly divided and isolated\, storytelling can bring us together.Story Jam is a bi-monthly story circle where community members can meet to get to know each other through personal stories. All members of the Upper Valley community are invited to join the circle and share an unrehearsed 5-minute true story from their own life. No competition\, no judgment\, no lecturing\, no ranting… Just share a story about something that happened to you and listen to other people’s stories. Whether you are a new or seasoned storyteller; whether you are shy or extroverted – all are welcome! The moderators will keep track of time to make sure everyone has a chance to speak.  Read more about StoryJAM and Upper Valley storytelling in Daybreak!\n\nFor more info\, reach us at storyjam@uvjam.org
