The President's Masked Ball!

This year's theme “will you stand with me in the fire?” really got me thinking about flames and shadows, and the way that both flames and shadows dance and sway and change all the time. If you stand with me in the fire, then our shadows are there, too.

All day long we will attend workshops, igniting our drama therapy passions, interests, questions, skepticisms, queries, suspicions and love; but this is only one side of us. So this year, the President's Reception also has a theme! Shadows, Alter-egos, Other Selves.

Bring your best (or your worst), with a mask, a costume, or just a mischievous grin and revel with the other sides of your comrades, colleagues and friends. There will be entertainment: A Mysterious Masked Man with oh-so-much-talent!

Worried about packing a beloved mask along with you on your travels? Never fear! There will be a simple mask making table at the conference, so that you may discover your other self in-the-moment.

The President's Masked Ball: Shadows, Alter-egos, Other Selves
Saturday, November 5th, 7pm. Gold Rush Ballroom.

I can't wait to see you there, no matter which “you” you are!

Mira, Conference Co-Chair
