make the Bed
Ariela Nazar-Rosen's powerful, moving, and real one hour performance will bring the world of mental health needs and support to the forefront of conversation. After her performance, we will host a panel with mental health professionals in the area to discuss needs and ways to connect with the community.
Based on true events and using variations on form, movement, and soundscapes, make the Bed is a 60-minute solo piece that explores what it’s like when your thoughts consume you whole. When black and white thinking takes over. When you have anxiety. And what it can feel like to sit with that anxiety in real time. And how to maybe, just maybe, go towards the grey. At its core, make the Bed is Ariela's call to open the door a bit wider on conversations around mental health, so we can reduce the stigma around these struggles and encourage asking for help, in whatever way is best for the individual.
