NARRATIVE MINDWORKS

...is a newly formed international private non-profit professional association for anyone involved with narrative medicine or any practice that uses narratives in their teaching, psychotherapy, etc. 

 

I was asked to join with the expectation that, at some point, they will feature me and my work as an artist and teacher.

 

This link is one of the first installments of Poets reading Poems. I was asked to read a poem by my husband, a published poet (now deceased) and comment on it. I also included a recording of the poem as a song that our band, Edgar Allen & The Poettes recorded.

Watch the video and hear the song, Prison Train here:

it's complicated...

What a great experience it was writing and performing this play. Thank you all who came and participated.

I am currently working on the next steps--what comes after the show and how can I work with others to share and witness their stories of loss and transition?

I am currently offering one-hour meeting workshops to talk about the show, my work and moving forward. If you'd like to be included, please reach out to me!

The Zoom workshops will go until some time in January 2024.

love, Michelle!

"Michelle is very emotional, and she lived her character... a brilliant performance."  --Mario Cerrito, director, DEADLY GAMBLE.

 

"Michelle Pauls [is] brilliant...crafts [a] stunning physical performance in a staging I can only describe as terrifying"

--Jim Rutter, PHILADELPHIA INQUIRER

 

"Michelle Paul’s rendition of Briseis is a stunning portrait not of the helpless woman, but of the power one finds in the most hopeless of situations" -- PHINDIE.

Some cool things I got going on:

Here's a sample of my acting:

 

 

 

I'm an actress, director, singer and theatre arts educator. I love to work on stage and on camera. I am adept at improvisation, versatile and daring, plumbing the depths of emotion in my work. I look for creatively challenging work with talented artists who have a strong story to tell.
