Mythodrama Workshop with Richard Olivier: Transition, Inspired Leadership and Henry V. October 18th-19th, Totnes.
Transition Town Totnes and Transition Network are delighted to announce a really special workshop coming up in October (I put this in yesterday’s Transition Network newsletter and rather stupidly left the date out… gah). The workshop will be presented and facilitated by Richard Olivier of Olivier Mythodrama and will explore issues of Transition in relation to inspired leadership, and to finding our inner strengths and resources through an intimate and inspirational exploration, through the use of Olivier’s Mythodrama approach, of Shakespeare’s ‘Henry V’.

I wrote last week about the submission that Transition Leicester made about eco-towns, today I want to celebrate the excellent piece of work done by Transition Glastonbury in pulling together their response to a report prepared by their local Council setting out plans for the development of the area over the next 20 years. As with most Council plans, it starts with assuming a graph with a line that rises as it moves towards the right, increased growth, increased investment, increased energy availability. Transition Glastonbury’s submission asks, what if it doesn’t? How might this area thrive in uncertain times? This is a timely post, as tomorrow night in Totnes sees the formal launch of our Energy Descent Pathways process, the creation, in effect, of the town’s Plan B. Congratulations to Transition Glastonbury for blazing a trail with this so brilliantly.

Thanks to that great Transition film-maker Alex Munslow, the talks from the night of the Lewes Pound launch are now available. The Lewes Pound is developing into a fascinating story, and although I did my best to try and capture the spirit of the night, these films capture it far better, in particular the last one, with the Mayor officially launching it. So here they are, in the order they came on the evening….
