Past Participants are Raving!
‘I’ve found Living Voices a welcome stretch into expanding writing into voice and performance. My sense of place in Bas St. Laurent is strong; I’ve appreciated the opportunity to expand it even more, with Janet’s encouraging teaching.’

‘I have come away from the Living Voices workshops with a piece of tremendous personal value. The 12-week format enhanced the creative process which gave me time to adapt and shape my piece until it grew beyond what I had initially anticipated.’

‘I had no theatre experience and at first I didn’t quite understand where we were heading, though I enjoyed the little writing, body, and voice exercises. Now it’s all making sense. With Janet’s structure and thoughtful feedback, it’s exciting to see my spontaneous writing develop into a theatre piece.’

The six-session online workshops offer Lower St Lawrence residents a chance to creatively explore the untold story of a significant character from their personal history. Led by artist and teacher Janet Madelle Feindel, participants will be guided develop a 3 – 4 minute piece conveying their personal story via approaches such as Somatic Voice, Alexander Technique and improvisation.
The two-hour workshops will be held online twice-monthly, on Saturday afternoons from 12:30 – 14:30. They are open to anyone over 18 years old who is based in the Lower Saint Lawrence region, and will be facilitated in English. There is a registration fee of $25 (per series).
The project will culminate in a collective in-person presentation in Lower Saint Lawrence in Spring 2026.
Series 2 of the workshops will begin mid-January and end mid-March. These are the dates to reserve: January 17, 31. February 14, 28. March 7, 21.
