Janus Gate: Entering the New Year
With Sylvia Israel & John Olesen

Janus, the ancient Roman god of gates, doors and new beginnings, is a double-faced god that looks to the future and the past. We will use psychodrama and other expressive arts to look behind and move ahead, as we pass through the Janus gate.

Join us and enjoy a safe, stimulating and confidential evening. There are no acting skills needed and participation is at your level of comfort.
