One Breath, Then Another: An Interactive Yoga Show chronicles Amanda
Miller’s month long experience studying yoga on an ashram in India. The
show depicts her quest for healing and empowerment to avoid destroying
herself like her father. Practices in her training conjure memories of
her father’s lung cancer and death, in addition to her own struggles
with mental health. As she trains to become a yoga teacher, she reflects
deeply on mortality and the workings of her mind, learning to let go
and surrender to the present moment, inviting the audience to do the
same. Amanda plays herself, her father, a friend, and the elderly ashram
leader, Purnima. Interactive elements include breathing exercises,
chanting, yoga poses, and meditation. Show runs 60 minutes.
