Why Every Town Needs A Stage
Jehan Izhar |

Creation is a much more powerful motivator than obligation. In her studio, Jehan takes avant-garde movement arts and makes them accessible and achievable for people of any background and any level. In her productions, Jehan orchestrates immersive storytelling that empowers the audience to expand their points of reference regarding contemporary affairs. As a performance coach and producer, she joyfully and tactfully blurs the lines between performance and community-building. "Every town needs a stage," she says, because "technology will not replace physical connection. And it will not replace live audiences like this and the connections we make together in these moments."
