Look out Broadway, The Clown is coming! FURY! has been selected as part of a group of diverse, international voices to participate in the world’s largest solo theatre festival, United Solo! Located in New York City’s historic Theatre Row, the festival spans two months and over 50 performers.

Showtime is Saturday, November 12th at 7 pm. Follow the link for tickets: https://unitedsolo.org/fury/

This project is supported in part by funding from the Mississippi Arts Commission, a state agency, and in part, from the National Endowment for the Arts, a federal agency, and through South Arts' Individual Artist Career Opportunity Grant program.

If you like a feisty clown, surely you will like a group of lady friends seeking murderous retribution against the Men of the Town. Lauren’s one act, ‘suff*rage’, has been selected for Dragonfly Theatre’s Take Flight New Plays Festival. If you are in the Chicago area, join us at 7:30 PM at Madison St. Theatre in Oak Park for a staged reading of this outrageous, historical revenge play . Audience members will pick their favorite from the three finalist for full production in the fall. Hope to see you there!!

FURY! will be making its regional premier on Saturday April 9th at the Powerhouse on University Avenue in Oxford, Mississippi! Sponsored by the Yoknapatawpha Arts Council and The Department of Theatre & Film at the University of Mississippi. Doors open at 6:30 pm with a 7 pm Curtain.

Lauren will be a Guest Artist at Vassar College, offering a one time workshop on the Divine Clown. Students will learn the freedom of heightened play, physical amplification and the bedrock of Clowning - dwelling fully in the space of Expectation.

After performing and teaching Improv for over 30 years I have observed that people are wildly creative. People are also wildly fearful of expressing their creativity.

We are afraid to mess up; to make mistakes or to look foolish in front of others.  And so, we stifle our impulses.  We spend a lot of time in our heads worrying.  Worrying about what choice we should make or what others think about us.    This worry keeps us from following our impulses. From trusting.  If we are in our heads, we are not listening to others or focusing on what is happening in the moment.  Maybe you have felt this way on the field...

Improv is all about being in the moment.  It’s about focus, communication, trust and being willing to take big risks. 

For athletes, practicing Improvisational games and exercises will result in an improvement in all of the above. Your team will be more focused and more in tune with one another. You will learn to see through your fears, to problem solve in the moment and to take risks.

No director, no set, and a sealed envelope with a script hidden inside. With a different actor for each performance, White Rabbit Red Rabbit is a lively, global sensation that no-one is allowed to talk about. Slyly humorous and audaciously pointed, this theatrical experience is unlike anything you have ever seen. Lauren is incredibly exited to be a part of this absurdist adventure.
