Come to the stage between two worlds - come to the Theatre of the Imagination. On this six-part live performance series, best-selling author and beloved cantadora (keeper of the old stories) Clarissa Pinkola Estes shares the work of her lifetime: myths, tales and poetry with the power to nourish and heal.

Contained within the audio for Theater of the Imagination are the great univeral themes - tales of loss and ressurection, of love and sacrifice; of the courage to survive- yet it is if Dr. Estes is speaking only to you.

wonderful story teller

I really enjoy Clarissa's books but to hear her tell her stories is a real gift!

She’s incredible!

I got so much out of each one of her stories and poems. Her perspective makes it easier to comprehend complex topics.

Grab a broom and sweep your imagination!

Would you consider the audio edition of Theatre of the Imagination, Volume 1 to be better than the print version?

Clarissa Pinkola Estes is a storyteller, a cantaora... Theatre of the Imagination is not a book narrated by the author, it is the wild way to transmit weapons for self knowledge.

What did you like best about this story?

Stories old and new came to life and that would have been enough, but wait, there is more! Theatre of the Imagination is a journey of self discovery that leads to consciousness, to a bigger life and is not for the faint of heart.

Have you listened to any of Clarissa Pinkola Estes’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

This was the first time I ever heard Clarissa Pinkola Estes and I was swept by her rich voice and mastery of the spoken word, plus she made me laugh!

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

Grab a broom and sweep your imagination!

Any additional comments?

I'm ready for the next journey...

Estes is as gifted entertainer and intellectual

I found this book inspirational, fascinating, and an excellent jumping off point for an exploration of Jungian psychology and archetypes.
