This is the first workshop in the series Tales from the Henhouse. It is a Theatrical Movement Class with a sewing and drawing component based on Chicken Chasing Queen of Lamar County, by Janice Harrington. In it students will learn about life on a farm, perseverance, creativity, ways to soothe the soul. More importantly, we discuss times when it is better to give up your desires for a higher purpose.
