DANCING FOR BRIGID-Get The Discount Code (see below)

“Dancing for Brigid” concerns a desperate member of a young adult LGBTQ group seeking help from their mentor, who tells the story of his own coming out as a 1990s married man. The group helps spin the tale, combining hip-hop and Irish dancing that honors the ancient Celtic priestess/warrior Brigid. 19 cast members of varying ages, races, & genders play 45 characters. Joining the cast are talented Stage/Film/TV actress Sachi Parker, daughter of Oscar winner Shirley MacLaine, and Carey Fox, retired Emmy Award-winning MSNBC producer who has returned to his first love of acting.

"Dancing for Brigid" performs June 8-9-10 in the Little Theatre at Manhattanville College in Purchase. LOFT members will get a 20% discount and only pay $20 per ticket using the code LOFTBrigidPride.

A special invitation from Jacoby Ballard, yoga teacher and social justice worker:

"I’ve been going to this LGBTQIA+ retreat for ten years and have taught yoga at six or seven of them. This team is so tender and wise, and I consider Isabel Adon and Madeline Klyne to be dharma mentors and queer siblings. Our multigenerational queer sangha – folks from 18 to 80 – is gorgeous, deep, unique, and a community that I call home. If you meditate or you’d like to learn how, if you’re just coming out or have been out for decades, if you consider yourself Buddhist or have a regular personal practice, if you’ve been on the frontlines of social justice work or don’t even know what that means – this space is for you.

We anticipate, affirm, and welcome you as you are."

*****

This retreat is open to all who identify as Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Intersex, Asexual, or Queer+. It will be an opportunity for this community to come together, care for each other, and recall true inner goodness. We will explore ways of sustaining a kind heart, a clear open mind, and a strong body. We'll also engage with the ancient teachings and practices offered by the Buddha that cultivate compassion, wisdom, and skillful actions. Please join us!

This in-person retreat will begin on Friday, May 26, at 3 p.m. EST and will end on Monday, May 29, at 2 p.m. EST.
