An Evening of Reflection with Laura van Dolron

ABOUT THIS EVENT

The world is hardening at an alarming rate, and it's time to counter that with a firm softness—a silence so deep it entices the screamers into quietude. Laura van Dolron will lead you through an evening that opens your heart and ignites your hope. Hope is not the pursuit of a favorable outcome, but rather doing what you know is good. Together, we can achieve this by finding the language of gentle truth and sending it out into the world, starting with you in the theater hall. Many boast about speaking the Hard Truth—why is that? Why are words that hit hard perceived as true? What about the gentle truth that might be just as valid? Van Dolron writes a new world history through small gestures and soft words that have yet to make it into conventional narratives but have changed the world nonetheless. Her performance is not just a production; it is a proposal for a better world where we dare to speak out—not in shouts, but in whispers. In this supportive environment, we focus not on results, but on the beauty that lies in doing good. Join Laura in exploring this time, contrasting the clamor with resolute gentleness. ‘I'm in transition and becoming softer. The world is hardening, and I'm softening. Little cushions everywhere that I didn't know existed. My ears feel a little heavy in my head, a small ripple between them. It’s a quiet and sweet process, and I enjoy it; I’m less afraid. But I need Trump and others to take it easy. I hope he comes to see this.’ Van Dolron looks for people who have changed history through softness, beauty, and authenticity. She seeks those who made small gestures that led to monumental impacts. Those who showed courage by refusing to resort to violence. Join her in honoring these unsung heroes, and feel that you can be one among them. Every act of love counts, no matter how small.
