The Sedona International Film Festival is proud to present “Leaving: The Musical Journey Out” — starring Colleen Porter — live on stage at the Mary D. Fisher Theatre on Saturday, April 12 at 7:00 p.m.
Sedona local Colleen Porter shares her one-woman musical and the journey of leaving what's no longer aligned — from religion and relationships to environments and old paradigms.
Join her for an evening of heart expansive songs and stories as she gets ready to leave Sedona and take off on her "Unsilent Tour" featuring the musical alongside Unsilencing Workshops for women.
With songs created over her past decade of leaving the Mormon church, expect a compassion-filled evening with touching lyrics and poetry, live violin, philosophy, psychology, and moments of audience participation. Never the same twice, this musical revolutionizes the way we look at leaving — giving ourselves so much grace as our brave walks away lead us into deeper spaces of growth and alignment with ourselves.
About Colleen Porter:
With a music education background and degree from ASU, Colleen turned to writing musical theatre and song around 2012 as a way to alchemize life and all its complexities. An award-winning dramatist, she has written many pieces with three musicals produced on valley stages such as "Songs from my Closet" and "Priority Seat". She also leads retreats, song circles, and workshops for women reclaiming power and authority over their lives again. This is the first time performing her own musical and she is so excited to step into this new expansive portal after living quietly in Sedona the past five years.
