Tribute to PHILLIP ZARRILLI - a man of the theatre -

5/23/2020

0 Comments

 
“As we well know, it's the simple that complicates.”
Herbert Blau, Take Up the Bodies
“He really was a once in a million man” said theatre director and teacher Stuart Lynch (Head of Københavns Film & Teaterskole / Copenhagen Film & Theatre School) to me in a message about the sad news of the passing of Phillip Zarrilli.

It isn’t easy to write when the loss of a great theatre teacher and person leaves a big space, an inner space, an indeterminable space…

That I’d the good fortune of working with him many years ago is something I’ll never forget. 

Phillip Zarrilli was unique because he wove together key metaphors from a wide range of theatrical sources. Included in that loving embrace were Asian theatre and dance forms such as Noh, Kathakali, Bharatanatyam, and Kutiyattam - all held in a way few directors have done so
respectfully, extensively and intensively. 

For thousands of students and actors, including me, they can now approach their craft with a new set of standards to enrich their work;


  • “the body becomes all eyes” (meyyu kanakkuka, Malayalam folk expression)
  • “standing still while not standing still” (A.C. Scott)
  • “working ‘on the edge of a breath” … “at the nerve ends” (Herbert Blau & Antonin Artaud)

With this feel for non-Western art, Zarrilli introduced many audiences to work like “The Water Station” —a highly poetic non-verbal score by Japanese playwright-director Ota Shogo - which Zarrilli directed several times (Singapore in 2004, and  Norway 2015), and that I was lucky enough to witness in Madison University in the late nineties.

Actors who have worked with Zarrilli can approach their work with a consideration of “body-mind”, “embodiment” and the “psychophysical” - knowing that their life’s work is to bring to their art a body and physicality that is highly trained and a mind that’s attuned.

In this approach Zarrilli was picking up the gauntlet tossed by theatre guru Antonin Artaud. who in turn mystically intrigued directors like Jerzy Grotowski, and it was in fact while in India to research Kathakali theatre which Grotowski had mentioned that Zarrilli discovered the martial art, Kalaripayattu on which the physicality of the Indian theatre form was rooted, and that was the movement form which Zarrilli spent his life deeply mastering. 

Studying with Zarrilli meant students undergoing intensive daily training in martial and related arts; taking on a practice of daily psycho-physiological exercises that focus on breath and "internal action.

Especial attention is made to the sense of the inspiration and respiration within the body, which creates a perfect ground for the “letting go” of conclusions and psychology that weighs down in more traditional forms of actor training. 

Without this burden actors could reach towards this sense of "at the nerve ends" - a phrase from American director and theoretician of performance, Herbert Blau who influenced Zarrilli’s early work.

Blau is famous for introducing American audiences to avantgarde drama in some of the country's first productions of Samuel Beckett, Jean Genet, and Harold Pinter including the 1957 performance of Beckett's Waiting for Godot at California's San Quentin State Prison.

The actors of Blau also studied T'ai Chi Ch'uan, as did A.C. Scott, the founder of the Asian / Experimental Program at Madison University where Zarrilli continued as Professor of Theatre and Drama, South Asian Studies, and Folklore, and Director of the Asian-Experimental Theatre Program until moving to the UK to continue his academic career at the University of Surrey and the University of Exeter. 

With this sensibility and flare, Zarrilli is probably, I would hazard a guess the director who has most worked with (or you could say “ through” and “within”) the texts of Samuel Beckett, without changing a beat. 

Beckett is known for fierce copyright restrictions so that not so much as a comma can be changed, and in this spirit, his plays never found safer hands that those of Zarrilli.

In a project set up by the ever inventive Centre for Performance Research in Wales, Zarrilli directed “Act Without Words I” - essentially a list of actions - in which with fellow actors Ian Morgan (Theatre Practitioner & course leader RADA’s MA Theatre Lab) and Tray Wilson (Senior Lecturer in Performance - University Campus Oldham) with Adam Hayward (Artistic Director at Hyde Productions) as directors assistant, I was lucky to be a performer where we also tackled “Play” in which at lightening speed a fragmented text falls out of the actors’ mouths, eluding to some past relationship, and all the while immobilised up to the neck in three pots.

Meantime the fantastic actor Patricia Boyette (Univeristy of Madison) was performing “Not I” in a terrifying vacuum of words without body, mouthed, and launched into being one syllable at a time. This epic performative journey was no doubt informed by the year-long project (1994-95) where Zarrilli had the verve to host at Madison University a month-long residency by noted Billie Whitelaw who was Beckett’s muse. 

More humbled and grateful I am that my solo “Illumiata” which was conceived and performed alongside the solo “Walking Naked” of dancer Gitanjalii Kolanad, was directed by Zarrilli. The two pieces went together as consideration of two female historical figures who had explored the divine; Karnataka poet-saint Mahadeviyakka and Hildegard de Bingen. As a double programme we performed together at the University of Baroda thanks to Parul Shah, and the Museum Theatre, Madras.


Before working with him creatively, Kolanad already knew Zarrilli from his book The Kathakali Complex (1990) - a book that by coincidence I’d also received at university in Exeter as a photocopy though was something I only remembered after having met Zarrilli for the first time whilst volunteering for the Centre for Performance Research in Aberystwyth.


Kolanad’s piece enigmatically dealt with the life and poetry of the 12th Century Karnataka poet-saint Mahadeviyakka. Mahadevi, a poet who was said to have run away from her arranged marriage in order to remain a devotee of Siva. Discovered "walking naked" by a community of Siva devotees, the story went that on her wedding night when her husband grabbed hold of her sari she kept walking, leaving it unwind as she walked. 


This unfathomable life met equally inspired staging due to an idea by Zarrilli to use three different puppets each of which had a transformational journey enacted by Kolanad.


In turn my piece was a mix of reflections on the human need to be part of something, bigger than ourselves and how that leads to searches internally and externally, from finding spiritually within to searching for it in drug use. 


Songs and texts of Hildegard de Bingen were mixed with reflections on the science behind the study of light; and personal accounts of users of ecstasy. 


Using plays of shadows, reflections, and back projections it became a meditation on spirituality and the search for enlightenment.


The striking part of this process was the precision and intricacy that Zarrilli develops as a director. A huge amount of research and reading that I did was accompanied by Zarrilli’s own reading so that a rich tapestry was woven from books like “Flow: The Psychology of Optimal Experience” by Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi “Catching the Light: The Entwined History of Light and Mind” by Arthur Zajonc. 


Zajonc is Professor of Physics at Amherst College and Visiting Professor at the Max Planck Institute for Quantum Optics, and his book is fascinating as a homage to light and its elusive definitions as well as so many strange phenomena such as when the sight is restored to a child who previously had no sight, that the act of “seeing” needs to be taught as seeing and perception are not the same. 


This perplexing, fascinating and captivating subject was breath by breath boiled down into a dance of objects, cloth, text, images and song. 


This ability to really see through to the ends of a choice - to the edges. This interlacing of research both physical and intellectual so that every fragment and every millimetre were underpinned, was Zarrilli’s gift.

Prolific as a scholar as well as a director Zarrilli will be deeply missed. 

My thoughts are with many of his friends and colleagues whose lives have crossed with mine such as Laurie Beth Clark and Michael Peterson (Artists, Co - founders of Spatula and Barcode, Faculty in the Department of Art, University of Wisconsin), Klaus Seewald (Actor, Co-Artistic Director at Theater Feuerblau), Jo Shapland (Performer / Artist), Dustin Schell (Actor / Writer), and his family in the States.

From the commentaries in social media each one is processing their own memories and grief as best they can.

There are so many shared histories that I only bring this as a small way to add the remarkable artistic journey of Phillip Zarrilli and as an attempt to exorcise the emptiness that his passing has left for so many around the world.  

I can only hope that these stories and this legacy will be of some small comfort in sincere condolences to Kaite O’Reilly who as a life companion, and with her writing and sensitivity for many identity questions, wove a beautiful pathway with Zarrilli of countless inspired projects. 

No life can be rounded off especially someone like Phillip Zarrilli who lived it so passionately. 

One lasting memory is from the day of the “get in” at the Museum Theatre in Madras, We discovered a building rather abandoned and it took some efforts to make it feel a place where the theatre muses could enter. I was really nervous, and so I’m not sure if it was the moment that Zarrilli had a brush in hand or when he was explaining the lights to a technician on a wobbly ladder tying lights to a rig with rope, but one of men running the theatre, impressed by Zarrilli’s willingness to do what ever it took to get the work done, including stepping out of any privileged reading of the title “director”, declared with much emotion, “he is a true man of the theatre.”

This brings to mind for me, the terrifying admonishment of Grotowski that actors should not be tourists. 

As any brief look at intercultural arts can show us, “tourism” or at it’s worst “appropriation” are serious dangers, but not for Zarrilli who had the gift of bravery to go deep and to face the minutia of what needed to be journeyed through to get there. 

He was a man of the theatre. 

Perhaps there's no real end and it is to that that which Beckett hints,


"The man is flung backwards on stage from right wing. He falls, gets up immediately, dusts himself, turns aside, reflects . . ."
​
Act Without Words I 
With gratitude and sadness,

chat bots do it better

Reducing some of the repeat tasks of business whether an arts related business or other sector, means more time spent on the things that really matter.

For instance, business relationships can be nurtured by automating communications with people who only have FAQs about your services.

The way to do it are Chat Bots - those things that some websites have that seem to predict the question you are about to ask. 


Chat Bots are a way to allow you to be “open” for questions 24/7 whilst reaching a target audience of 21 - 54 years olds.

By being able to separate out queries so customers get the appropriate information, you save time by knowing what kind of enquiry it is - e.g. a warm lead or someone browsing at an early decision making stage?


I met Sudha as a fellow invited speaker in a summit for business women wanting strategies for business systems.

I'm very happy to recommend this course as her affiliate as she caught my eye for her tech talent, great sense of humour, and wonderful Scottish accent!


This is Sudha's do it yourself Chat Bot course.

Sudha is well known for her tech expertise, has a Facebook community for more guidance, and weekly group calls for questions.

You could hire an expert to build your chat bot, however what you’ll learn in this course puts you in the driver’s seat, saving you costs and time. It's vital because you know your business better than a developer.

You could spend a lot of wasted time on researching this subject or jump into this class with a highly recommended tech expert who will put you ahead of the game.

Clear Insight Productions is really dedicated to life long learning so this is a great way to more forward in the area of communications. 

​Enjoy!

Are you a female and over 50? Then this is a cool chance to win 4-night mini-retreat next to the Mediterranean sea whilst in a challenge to figure out some next steps with expert tips

I’m so excited to be part of the FREE 5 Day Midlife Mojo Challenge set up by Midlife Strategist, Kay Newton who has dedicated her career to finding ways to move her clients forward after set backs and who know what it feels like to be sandwiched in life, dealing with issues such as empty nests, ageing parents, declining pensions, boomerang kids, hormone havoc - and the list just goes on!
Join FREE 5 Day Midlife Mojo Challenge
Having know Kay Newton for quite a few years now (even though we have never yet met in person), I love the way that she helps women navigate through midlife storms that often trigger guilt and confusion. She understand the gravity of having to decide a path for the next few years and what makes her mad is procrastination because she sees it as another wonderful day of opportunity lost. Being from Lancashire she has a great straight talking way of fixing problems and having recently walked the Camino de Santiago pilgrimage 500 mile route without a single blister, she knows how to take on a challenge herself and how to keep going one step at a time come what may. 

Frustration at seeing lack of information on midlife drove her to create “The Midlife Challenge” as a step to get you moving again whether neglected health is your concern, loneliness, purpose, flat-lined finances or just need to focus on re-starting your engine and finding your mojo.

This is also a fantastic way on a cold winter evening to meet new people who are also figuring out their next moves. 

See you there.

Marissa's determination and laugh is infectious so I hope you will jump in to hear one or two of these talks. 

I am honoured to share this digital stage and share my thoughts on organising our information overload with a really savvy group of female entrepreneurs and to be one of the only four from the UK (Shelley Fishel and Anna Lundberg from London, and Sudha Mani in Edinburgh). 

Each speaker has overcome frustrations to find ways to run their own businesses with integrity and ingenuity. 

It's free but you do have limited time to listen - or jump in to the life time access which gives you many more in depth trainings and special free offers.

I used to hate setting goals and still wiggle around being tied down in an overly rational way - yet my vision gets stronger and stronger therefore so does my desire to be more and more efficient and productive. 

Therefore it was to both my surprise and delight that Marissa Stone picked me from hundreds of applications in order to be a guest speaker on her summit International Women's Business Systems Virtual Summit

Productivity tips galore. 

#ittakesavillage

We all need support networks and here are 64 talks full of personal and business experience. 

64 perspectives on creating effective work systems to get more done. 

The summit is linked to A Walk in Her Shoes Academy (AWIHS) - the brain child of Marissa Stone. A survivor of domestic violence herself, Marissa knows first hand that leaving is a process, a marathon if you will, not a sprint. Once she decided to leave it took her 5 years to get out and once she did, she went back twice. When she was finally free it still took another two years to get back on her feet. It does not have to be this way.

Marissa says, "I've accomplished many things in my life since leaving my abusive background and next on my agenda is to empower women who are also coming out of domestic violence to learn to use systems to redesign and rebuild their own lives. My big, bold, audacious dream to build an academy that will teach these women the skills required to do project-based work and build a nest egg so when they are ready to leave, they have the funds, skills and opportunities to rebuild their lives quickly, has now arrived. Moving forward 50% of the proceeds from the Premier International Women’s Business Systems Virtual Summit will go to the AWIHS Academy so please help us spread the word!"

Tune in for Dallas meets Cardiff in Buenos Aires!

Here is to your new ways of being, doing and knowing.

Slightly Future Me & THE Daisies in Jam Jars

9/20/2019

0 Comments

 
Whatever problem you might be facing now, there is a solution closer at hand than you think.

Sometimes the key is to find the simplest solution and not the perfect one. Often it is far better a small decision in a direction than no movement at all.

This came home to me yesterday when I was feeling pretty stuck in the mud with work.

By chance it was the monthly call with creativity coach Sam Bennett that I’m lucky to get as part of being a member of her 365 Club with her company “The Organised Artist.” 

I’ve been a fan and student of Sam’s for many years and she has got me out of many a life and work funk. 

So yesterday in the chat box of the monthly Q & A call I asked her about how to deal with the sense of hitting a limit that you can’t break. This has been bugging me recently even to the point that my computer is all quaky and doing that spinning rainbow wheel thing because I’m low on computer memory. It feels like I’m at a barrier on many levels.

Sam’s reply was totally inline with her creative approach to everything. “Close your eyes right now” she said. “Imagine your slightly future self and ask that slightly future you what do you need to know now.”

Anyone who has studied anything in mindset will have come across exercises like this. What I loved about this version of Sam’s was the word “slightly.” It was this one word that shifted everything for my over-achieving wound-up self that was feeling blocked. 

My “slightly future self” was craving a bit of simplicity and completion rather than the constant sensation of never appreciating small wins because there was always something new on the horizon. 

This slightly future me just wanted the gift of a daisy - that flower that could not be more simple or more loved for its association with childhood and summer. 

It was a three minute visualisation that gave my intuitive side the chance to have its say against a mind racing with rational reasoning. 

Sam shared her memory of a party where she had wanted to keep it simple and put daisies in jam jars.

I’m a big jam jar fan - I love the way when you wash an empty jam jar it then gorgeously catches the light on the window sill. 

How does this directly shift that sense of limit and barriers?

It doesn’t directly at all. Yet indirectly I tapped back into something homely and hearty that put any limit into perspective. 

Isn’t it amazing how the presence of another who is lovingly willing you on can so beautifully nudge one on? To me it’s invaluable to have such guidance from time to time when rationality presents no obvious answers. 

Today I hope you find the nudge you need to keep you going forward even if slightly.

All of You in full force and flow

Joyce van der Lely (Dutch artist and educator) has a wonderfully encouraging and infectious warmth to her which made it a pleasure to be interviewed by her for “All of You” - a series of conversations and explorations on how to include every fabulous thing that you have to offer, created for multi passionate women seeking harmony in life and work.

This free event starts today / tomorrow as Joyce is in New Zealand so for many of us we are a day behind. She leads frequent facebook lives from her this cosy corner in her studio that is like a sanctuary.

When I first chatted to Joyce in an interview to see if we thought we could work together there was one line of coincidence which was her memory of holidays in Wales, including to Aberystwyth and to that town with the name longer than the railway station. This mixed with my memories of a summer school with the amazing David Zambrano at the School for New Dance Development (now part of the Academy of Theatre and Dance, Amsterdam University of the Arts) when I was a student.

Then what clinched it for me was the combination of our fluid conversation and the painting Joyce has in her office which was like a wild circle. It could have been an illustration for a short story of Borges. I love spirals and when she told me it was a work she'd made when figuring out her relationship to time, I was convinced.

She has gathered really wild and whacky bunch of speakers who are from the fields of Mindset, Self-empowerment, Spirituality, Branding, Business/Careers, Creativity, Shamanism and more.

With such a combination of Doodlers, Educators, Creative Directors, Feng Shui Consultants, Lifestyle Business Coaches, Poets, Transformational Coaches, Film-makers and much more, this event won't be for everyone yet for anyone exploring, re-examining their life choices and pondering what else there is to life, then there is sure to be at least one talk that will catalyse some unsung aspect or dormant desire into finding its feet.

All of You - 16th Sept 2019

    I'm from Cardiff, Wales and I split my time between Buenos Aires and Aberystwyth  (a tiny Welsh coastal town).  I founded Clear Insight Productions in 2002 to make original live performance and events; and with the hope  of finding "clear insight. or clarity, insight and productivity." In that spirit I share news about my own productions, those of colleagues, or ones that I find along the road.
