CELEBRATION
Theatre is a celebration of life. We aim to find meaning as we
explore the essence of our humanity. As performers we play in the field of
emotions and explore the potential of our spirit.
CENTRED
This is the balance point of the extreme opposites. This is the
two polarities inside us, the believer and the sceptic, the male and the female,
let them share the stress and row the boat together, in the same direction. This
is balance. Not too hot and not too cold. The Goldilocks concept. It’s about
finding that place that is "just right" We only find this balanced
centre when we explore the extremes of either side. This creates the dynamics in
life.
CHALLENGE
Challenge our skills and our minds as performers, and challenge
the beliefs of our audience.
CHANGE
This is one thing you can be sure of. Embrace it. Create it.
CHOICE
Our greatest POWER is the power of choice. Do not underestimate
the force that undermines this power. To lie in bed or to get up. This is the
basic choice and with it comes the power to achieve or to not achieve.
COOPERATION
Never forget "no one is smarter than all of us". A
team can create more, achieve more than the individual who stands alone. Ever
seen one sole man build a sky scraper.
CREATIVITY
"Creativity involves a new way of looking at life - an
expression of originality; it is also a matter of generating the energy
necessary to break through old barriers and explore new territory." (page
35 Dan Millman The Life You Were Born To Live)
DARE TO BE DIFFERENT
Develop the inner security and confidence that allows you to
dare to be considered odd
Celebrate Being, Acting, Feeling different. DO NOT CONFORM.
Embrace the objectives of being original, innovative, cutting edge, generous,
wise, joyous, courageous and compassionate
GARDEN
Every day, spend time in your garden. Plant your dreams, water
them, prune them, and watch them grow.
LEADERSHIP
The purest form of leadership is to inspire others by example.
LOVE
Allow people to grow, give them power by showing you care....
that is love.
STEP BY STEP
Any goal, no matter how big, can be broken down into small
manageable steps. Take one step at a time. Try to skip a step and you often fall
down. You must buy the ingredients before you can bake a cake. After buying
them, you first must measure the ingredients, mix them, put them in a baking tin
and then place that tin in the oven. But never forget, the cake will not cook if
you don’t turn the oven on.
