Twelfth Night<\/em> – Oregon Shakespeare Festival<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Twelfth Night<\/em>\u00a0is one of Shakespeare’s greatest romantic comedies. A desperate shipwreck in a faraway land launches a mirthful and thoroughly dreamlike tale of mischief and disorder, disguises and deceptions, fantasies and desires, and ultimate revelations of truth and identity. The Oregon Shakespeare Festival<\/a> production of\u00a0Twelfth Night<\/em>\u00a0is inspired by early 20th century Blues and Jazz greats like Bessie Smith. As an IASD conference attendee, you may attend this production with our group outdoors under the stars in the Elizabethan Theatre. After dinner downtown and a free Greenshow “on the bricks” of OSF, we will experience this bluesy, jazzy version of\u00a0Twelfth Night<\/em>\u00a0under a sky that starts out light blue and slowly shifts to deep indigo by the end of the play. Sound dreamy?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ANDRAS JONES
Radio8Ball: The Pop Oracle<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Andras Jones is a multi-disciplinary artist (writer, musician, actor, producer) who has brought his many fields of endeavor together in an interactive performance format he calls Radio8Ball. Participants \u201cconsult The Pop Oracle\u201d by asking questions which are answered by picking songs at random. The songs are performed live by the guest songwriter and interpreted\u2026like communal dreams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At our conference Andras Jones will be presenting a Radio8Ball show as a keynote on June 19th<\/sup> with guest singer songwriter, Bart Davenport<\/a>. There will be a few scheduled guests who will ask questions to The Pop Oracle but several of our participants will be chosen at random from the crowd so you might end up being the star of the show. What\u2019s your question for The Pop Oracle?<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

This synchronistic format, which Andras has been presenting on radio, live stages, podcasts, in classrooms and at conferences since 1998, draws inspiration from dream seminars his father, Richard M. Jones, led at colleges and universities like Evergreen, Cornell, UC Santa Cruz, Brandeis and Harvard and wrote about in books like \u201cThe Dream Poet\u201d, \u201cThe New Psychology of Dreaming\u201d & \u201cExperiment At Evergreen\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
