I deeply value being in a space that's explicitly queer and BIPOC centered. Now that I no longer work in theater, The Fire Ensemble is my main tether to artmaking and performance, and it's a joy to be a participant. And I love singing in a group - I love being one voice of many, with all voices/experience levels/backgrounds welcome! https://padlet.com/darrenbiggart1/4mh38ilt38ory9uu/wish/2729342189 2023-10-02 22:44:08 UTC https://padlet.com/darrenbiggart1/4mh38ilt38ory9uu/wish/2729342189 Singing with a choir gives incites connectedness and naturally sparks joy and laughter. It feels good! I continue to come back because everyone here is so open and kind and Troy creates a space that is safe and just so much fun to be a part of. It's also a great release from the harsh and some less harsh day to day stressors of life. https://padlet.com/darrenbiggart1/4mh38ilt38ory9uu/wish/2729342782 2023-10-02 22:45:13 UTC https://padlet.com/darrenbiggart1/4mh38ilt38ory9uu/wish/2729342782 Creative, spiritual, and interpersonal fulfillment.
