DESCRIPTION:KISS OF THE SPIDER WOMAN \n“I’d do anything for him.” \n
 At its core\, Kiss Of The Spider Woman is a story about survival – but a
 t Lakewood Playhouse\, it becomes a powerful meditation on what it means t
 o be a hero.  Set inside a Latin American prison\, two men – Valentín\
 , a hardened revolutionary\, and Molina\, an imprisoned dreamer condemned 
 for who he is – seem to stand on opposite sides of courage.  Yet as the
 ir walls slowly come down\, acts of heroism emerge not through grand gestu
 res\, but through compassion\, vulnerability\, and the radical choice to s
 ee one another fully. \nIn alignment with Lakewood Playhouse’s commitmen
 t to storytelling that builds empathy and connection\, this production tra
 nsforms a harrowing tale of persecution into a vivid theatrical experience
 \, where fantasy becomes both refuge and resistance.  Molina’s dazzling
  visions of the glamorous Aurora – and her deadly Spider Woman – offer
  escape\, but also illuminate deeper truths about identity\, sacrifice\, a
 nd love. \nThis is a story where heroism is not defined by strength alone\
 , but by the bravery to imagine\, to trust\, and to care in a world that p
 unishes all three. \nThe original Broadway production won seven Tony Award
 s including Best Musical\, Best Book Of A?Musical and Best Original Score.

DESCRIPTION:Event Overview: \nWith Ajahn Kovilo and Ajahn Nisabho\, from C
 lear Mountain Monastery. \nThis will be our 3rd year collaborating with Cl
 ear Mountain and it is met with huge excitement over the newly acquired ho
 me site for Clear Mountain Monastery\, which is located in North Bend. To 
 all of you who had to reschedule the time and place from July at Hazel Wol
 f Wetlands Preserve to this new time on September 6th\, 12:30 – 2:00\, t
 hank you for making the change. \nForterra NW had been working closely wit
 h Ajahn Kovilo and Ajahn Nisabho to find a new home that will provide a la
 ndscape of forest and trails ideally suited for gathering and meditation p
 ractice.  This new 90-acre North Bend location is a perfect fit and we wi
 ll be celebrating our first Forterra Nature Discovery there in September. 
 This landscape holds a variety of habitats including wetlands and dense fo
 rest that is home to fish bearing streams\, elk and all sorts of other wil
 dlife. Join us for this meditative\,  deep nature experience and celebrat
 ion of a new home. \nWhy Forest Meditation? \nThe Buddha was born under a 
 tree\, attained Enlightenment under a tree\, lived and practiced under tre
 es\, and passed away under a tree. From those earliest days through the en
 tire course of Buddhist history native forests and wilderness preserves pl
 ayed a vital part in nurturing the spiritual lives of sincere and ardent p
 ractitioners intent on understanding the truth of “the way things are.
 ”  Let’s see what we can learn from sitting together.
