Turbulent Architect

Written and performed by Julie Lyn Barber

Directed and dramaturged by Dr. Michelle Dvoskin

​

Donkeys. Music. Canoes. Shakespeare. Pixies. What if the wrong way is really the best way? What if the side quests turn out to be the main adventure? What if there aren’t actually any blueprints? What if turbulence is more fun and rewarding than smooth sailing? And how is your brain like slime mold? 

 

Solo artist and jack of all trades Julie Lyn Barber has a mission: to figure out how to build an authentically joyful life while constantly being told (by the world or her anxiety) that she’s doing it wrong. Through stories, observations, and song snippets, she offers a candid, heartwarming, and hilarious guided tour of the chaotic inner workings of her mind, not to mention some fun facts about…well, all sorts of things, because one of her defining characteristics is the need to learn everything about everything. 

 

Enjoy a peek behind the mask of this crafty chameleon. What you see might even help you discover your own Youkali.
