How a Typical Astrodrama Session Works 1. A protagonist (the person whose chart is being explored) or the group chooses a focus (e.g., a specific transit, a relationship dynamic, or the whole natal chart). 1. Participants are assigned roles- e.g., one person is Mars in Scorpio in the 7th house, another is the Moon in Cancer, etc. 1. They improvise interactions - Planets “talk” to each other, move around a space (sometimes laid out like a horoscope wheel), express emotions, and create scenes. 1. The protagonist watches, directs, or joins in- often gaining powerful insights into their inner dynamics as they see their chart “performed.” 1. Debrief - Everyone shares what they felt in their role, revealing hidden patterns or unconscious material.

# **Please expand to read event setup** Max 25 participants can comfortably fit in the room at any one time with the following; * NO MORE SINGERS PLS * 5-6 guitarists * 1-3 bassists * 3-4 drummers * 1-2 keys Participants will be called up to play songs they've noted on the Song list spreadsheet (link below) as priority. We go to our local pub for some karaoke afterwards! **The Jam Plan** Working on tunes from the Song List spreadsheet 2:30pm-4:30pm BREAK 4:30pm-6:30pm **Song list sheet:** Head over to the link below to nominate songs or put your name against existing songs on the list. [Link to spreadsheet](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1MFZSyioTvFhU3cipoh-CxLDB2Dgu7R2BXaW4G0Wg5nQ/edit?usp=sharing) # **What to bring on the day:** There will be a keyboard, drum kit, 4 mics, 1 bass amp and 2 guitar amps on the day. Singers: Bring along lyrics. Guitarist / Bassist: Bring along your instrument. Drummers: Drum kit and sticks are provided. Keys/piano players: Keyboard is provided. # **Considerations** 1. Jammers should come prepared for the songs they have chosen on the spreadsheet. 2. No shows or cancellations up to a week before the Jam will not be refunded. Ask the organizer for a refund if you cancel before then. 3. Spreadsheet: maximum 5 song nominations per person. Put your name on the 'Nominated By' column. 4. Guitarists: there will be a rig setup for each amp you will all be using this jig. We will plan ahead and agree who is bringing what pedal for the day. 5. Jammers doing very few songs will go on the waitlist. The cost is £12 pre-pay for the day, fees all go towards running The Jam.

We support the runners doing the London Marathon. It's a fun day out drumming. You can find us outside the Shadwell Centre. We meet at 9am to collect drums from the cars. The location on the cars will be shared with members. We then set up and stay in the same spot all day. You are welcome to come and go as you please. It's a good chance to improve or try a different drum.

We meet to learn and practice American Sign Language and to grow our familiarity with Deaf culture. Facilitated by hearing folks (with a connection to a professional interpreter) using Deaf-created content. People of all ASL skill levels are welcome! As we learn, we hope to connect more with the Deaf community in Central Ohio. Join us as you're able! Come regularly or just once - whatever you're looking for! Each meetup will explore different topics related to ASL/Deaf culture, and will feature time to practice conversation with one another. Just bring yourself and a willingness to learn!

Join us for a fun Dinner & a Movie event as we get together to see MICHAEL + Dinner at CAP City! The film is directed by Antoine Fuqua and stars Jaafar Jackson (Michael Jackson’s nephew) as the King of Pop! Early buzz is strong for what should be an excellent musical-biopic! Here are details, a trailer and plan for this event: DESCRIPTION: This biographical musical drama follows the life of Michael Jackson, from his time with the Jackson 5 to his early solo career! Highlighting both his life off-stage and some of the most iconic performances from his early solo career, the film gives audiences a front-row seat to Michael Jackson as never before. Jaafar Jackson (Michael Jackson’s nephew) stars in the title role alongside Nia Long, Laura Harrier, Juliano Krue Valdi, Miles Teller and Colman Domingo.

If you plan to join for Dinner AND the movie, please be sure to RSVP in both places.
