A sharing. A letting go. A passing of stories.
AN EXPERIENTIAL THEATRE PERFORMANCE BY MIRIAM WASMUND & COMPANY
about
Developed by writer and performer Miriam Wasmund, Your Faithful Reader merges the worlds of acting and dance with real letters.
Interested participants were mailed writing prompts—suggestions of letters they may want to write: to others (known and unknown), to themselves, to their most beloved objects, or even the intangible.
The response was pages of heartfelt words, ranging from the romantic and fun to the most honest and brutal truths.
Now a company of actors, dancers, and creatives have given the letters (both anonymous and signed) new life in Your Faithful Reader.
