Description:
It's a common dream.. . leaving the rat race behind and moving to a tropical island. Spending all day in a hammock. Picking fruit off the tree and maybe a little fishing at sunset. Ahh, the good life. . . !
Well, Iala actually did it! She looked her far too trusting husband, Akal, in the eye and said: "All our dreams can come true now - we don’t have to wait." And he believed her!
PARaDIse 4 $Ale, Iala's one-woman "detour de tropical storm" is the result.
The show is an off-the-grid tale of an apartment-dwelling, office-working, city slicker touched by a vision and morphing overnight into a jungle jenny, earth mama, back-to-nature, hippie queen.
Iala takes us through her journey. It is not necessarily chronological or for that matter linear logical but still manages to touch on visions that just won't quit - a Near Death Experience, and close encounters of the touching kind with wolves and eccentrics. All the while she tumbles mightily from the mountain of "I know it all" to the valley of "I haven’t got a clue!"
Her whimsical word weaving, skillful storytelling and vibrant energy along with her hilarious recognition of her own shortcomings keeps us willing hostages on the edges of our seats.
PARaDIse 4 $Ale is an army ant, coral snake, tin roof pounding torrent of delightful tropical overkill that leaves one happy with one's quiet, quotidian life and grateful for ones piece of the American dream.
Hurray for cell phones, satellite T.V., air conditioning and RAID!
After hearing Iala's story, life off-the-grid sounds way off the wall and a bit too one-with-nature for any sane, logical progression-of-thought, modern technophile like me.
Enjoy the trip, living vicariously through 90 deliciously manic, highly charged, "I know it all and even if you don't ask I'll tell you" minutes with Miss Iala.
PARaDIse 4 $Ale is written and performed by Iala and can be seen at The Nuwandart Gallery, 258 A Street, Suite 2, Ashland, OR on Friday, April 15th and Saturday, April 16th at 8 p.m.
Tickets are sliding fee scale $11-15 available by calling (541) 535-3525. Pre-registration recommended. Reservations email: coordinator@rvml.org
Performances of ParAdiSe 4 $ale benefit Casa de Milagros an orphanage in Peru.
