Nalanda West hosts an encore theatrical presentation of two stories from The Hundred Thousand Songs of Milarepa, with performances by Katiana Rangel and Lynne Conrad Marvet and music by guest cellist Lori Goldston.
The event features Christopher Stagg’s translation of these classic Tsangnyön Heruka compositions:
- The Offering of the Pigeon Goddess Girl
- Meeting Paldarbum
Katiana Rangel
Katiana Rangel has a long performance history in Brazil. In NYC she created the performances Suspended and Iraci or What’s Underneath My Skin. She has an ongoing theater project with Jim Fletcher called Four Seasons derived from Sarah Kane’s play Blasted, and has also worked with Liza Birkenmeier, Tory Vazquez and the New York City Players, Anna Kohler and Caleb Hammond. She is a founding member of Les Ballets Nomades presented at the Festival Voices Transposed: The Refugee Crisis. She believes in art as a portal to realization of the indescribable, and the illusion of theater is as real as illusion of reality. Her life research has been how to create such works.
Lynne Conrad Marvet
Lynne Conrad Marvet is a visual and performing artist who takes delight in whimsy, playfulness and life’s mysteries and absurdities. She makes mixed media collages, masks, puppets, and assemblage sculptures. Lynne studied at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago; and is also a WA State TAT Lab (Teaching Artist Training) graduate. Lynne has been a student of Dzogchen Ponlop Rinpoche for three decades and is one of the founding Directors of Nalanda West.
Lori Goldston
The Stranger Genius Award winner Lori Goldston is a master cellist who’s the only musician besides Kurt Cobain to play with both Nirvana and Earth. Classically trained and rigorously de-trained, possessor of a restless, semi-feral spirit, Lori Goldston is a cellist, composer, improvisor, producer, writer and teacher from Seattle. Her voice as a cellist, amplified or acoustic, is full, textured, committed and original. A relentless inquirer, she wanders recklessly across borders that separate genre, discipline, time and geography.
