Manage episode 403612572 series 2863497
Episode Overview: You may be asking, what the heck are stairway thoughts? Well, stairway thoughts are those things that you remember as soon as the call ends, or as soon as you walk out the door. In this episode Molly goes into her stairway thoughts she’s had upon recording season 4 of Any Other Anythings.
Special Note about Season 4 of Any Other Anythings: This season features GBC Founder and Creative Producer Molly W. Schenck as she archives the journey of GBC from 2016 to present day. We highly recommend listening to this season of Any Other Anythings in chronological order …unless you want a more non-linear experience in which case, feel free to hop around.
Producing Company Bio: Grey Box Collective is an arts organization that produces projects on social emotional wellbeing (i.e. we make weird art about tough stuff). GBC was founded in 2016 by Molly W. Schenck. GBC’s work is interdisciplinary, experimental, and post-dramatic. We work primarily at the intersection of performing arts, visual arts, educational psychology, somatics (body and mind connection), and feminist theory. We aim to explore brand new forms of expression and make choices to rebel against the “norms”. Our work prioritizes investigating broad ideas (ex. hate, othering, shame, mental health and sexual violence) and typically steps away from traditional plot lines or characters. Since forming, we have been in residency and performed with nue[BOX], the Phoenix Center for the Arts, the Boulder Fringe Festival, and the Network of Ensemble Theatre’s annual conference. We have partnered with the Artist’s Box, Z-Room, The Movement Project, The Phoenix Hostel and Cultural Center, Scottsdale Museum of Contemporary Art, Prison Law Office, the Arizona Coalition to End Sexual and Domestic Violence, and Take Back the Night Phoenix, and La Frontera (EMPACT)'s Trauma Healing Services Division.
