Join us for an introductory evening of Medicine Theater, a deep, fun and exploratory process of co-created mythic storytelling through improv!
During this class we will explore the transformative power of mythic story creation, using improv exercises and other story crafting methods to co-create worlds that bridge personal and collective healing. Our aim is to unlock aspects of ourselves and experience liberation and joy through embodied creative expression as we traverse the healing realms of co-created story through improv.
What to Expect

Harness the wisdom of the Sacred Fool to break free from old useless, constrictive programming
Collaborate with fellow creative mythic travelers in a supportive and inspiring environment
Tap into your intuitive knowing as we dance our way into the creative realms

Asher Lyons
Asher Lyons is the founder and visionary for Medicine Theater, a program with the mission to support people young and old to find liberation, joy and healing through the art of spontaneous play, improvisation and story creation. Asher has been facilitating this type of work for nearly 20 years, and has found that real freedom is discovered through connecting to our creative spirit and the natural world.
Beginning in 2003, Asher became an instructor for the San Francisco Mime Troupe’s Youth Theatre Project where Asher learned to facilitate inner city youth in creating their own original play performed in San Francisco. It was this training that planted the seed and gave Asher the much needed understanding and clarity of vision to eventually begin his own organization, Medicine Theater where he discovered that offering this style of transformational creative expression was just as effective for adults as for youth. Asher has been facilitating this work ever since!
