REVISION OF David's Book:
Theatre for Living,
the art and science of community-based dialogue

David did a workshop in Calgary in June of 2007 in which he ran a "Wildest Dream" exercise. During the work he had an insight into the technique that changed the way he does the exercise. The book had already gone to print. He feels the change is so fundamental to the exercise that he has revised the book file (now v.1.1) at Trafford Publishing to include the evolution of The Wildest Dream. For those of you who may have version 1.0, the rewritten pages are available at: http://headlinestheatre.com/tflbook/TFLv1.1-WD.pdf

You can check your version number at the top of the copyright page.

Announcing the website launch of 2º of fear and desire

Having regained our collective balance after the cancellation of 2º of Adaptation, we are witnessing the natural evolution of the project into a series of 10 grassroots events in and around Vancouver in Feb/Mar 08. We will be running 2º of fear and desire in various communities, in collaboration with environmental organizations from our working group. Stay tuned and check the project's website for more info at: http://headlinestheatre.com/2Degrees08/index.htm

Season's Greetings!
From the Folks at Headlines

What a year! Full of intense and hugely interesting work in communities... From the METH Tour of 28 cities in BC, to Wasagamack in the remote Island Lake Region of Northern Manitoba; from Calgary to the Australia Tour and back to an exciting project with the BC Cancer Society. And finally, the roller-coaster of 2º of Adaptation and its transformation into 2º of fear and desire. We truly haven't had a lack of excitement at Headlines' office!

And so, another year of working towards our hearts' desire for peace and justice in the world, and, of course the knowledge that there is still a long way to go...
Our warmest wishes to all of you!

Thanks for ongoing operational support: The Canada Council; BC Gaming Commission; City of Vancouver; BC Arts Council; the Melusine Foundation.
