    About the Book

    Edit

    From Why Did Sarah Bernhardt Sleep in a Coffin? to The Invisible Circus of the Present Tense, Slow Dancing Is Easy blends humor and pathos in a genre fluid collection of short pieces that resonate with memoir, observations and fantasy. Originally created for stage performance, the works make an exuberant leap from stage to page in this unique collection of short solo scripts paired with striking illustrations and photos.

    Written by Ara Fitzgerald, designed by Ola DeKorne, illustrated by the author’s whimsical line drawings and Peter Cunningham’s photographs, Slow Dancing Is Easy is playful and inventive as it touches on love and loss in daily life and the search for resilience when confronted with today’s challenges.

    For adventurous general readers as well as dance/theater, poetry aficionados and performers seeking solo material, Slow Dancing Is Easy is a creative performance tool and an artistic keepsake. Whether you are preparing for an audition, seeking inspiration, appreciating the fusion of text and image with its the range of voices, emotions and visual storytelling, Slow Dancing Is Easy invites you to find the dance and drama within yourself.

    This beautifully designed edition is perfect for personal libraries and gifts.
