SUMMARY:Making Anyway: A Conversation About Creativity\, Voice\, and What Gets in the Way
DESCRIPTION:Join playwright Renae Jarrett for an open conversation about creative life\, and what it feels like when it stops. \nOver the past few years\, Renae moved from writing dozens of plays a year to a complete standstill. In this conversation\, she’ll share honestly about how that happened\, how she has and hasn’t found her way through it\, and what she’s learned about the importance of making when there doesn’t feel to be a place for your voice. \nShe’ll share work from the writers who shaped her\, including Adrienne Kennedy\, Wallace Shawn\, and Caryl Churchill\, as a way into the conversation\, and invite participants to bring their own stories of creative blocks and how they did or didn’t work through them. \nThis conversation is part of Shadowcliff’s 2026 Still Point Sessions residencies\, bringing artists to the mountains for a week of creative work in Grand Lake.
