Local musician and philosopher Madeline McNeill is bringing  “BEING HUMAN | A Philosophical Performance” to Spokane libraries beginning July 20.

The creative performance is a contemplative exploration of human experience, energized by the physical and thoughtful exploration of what it means to be human. McNeill said it marks “an exciting evolution in my development as a body philosopher.”

In the performance she combines several disciplines including operatic voice training, yoga and meditation to approach philosophical questions from a perspective of body intelligence and feeling.  She explained that “questions move through core muscle analysis and expose epiphany, exercising an intellect that establishes skilled feeling as a primary tool to explore human experience.”

Performances will be:

  • July 20 | South Hill Library | Monday 6:30-7 p.m.
  • Sept 1 | Shadle Library | Tuesday 6:30-7 p.m.
  • Sept 15 | East Side Library | Tuesday 6:30-7 p.m.
  • Oct 3 | Downtown Library | Saturday 10:30am-11 a.m.
  • Oct 13 | Indian Trail Library | Tuesday 6:30-7 p.m.
  • Oct 20 | Hillyard Library | Tuesday 6:30-7 p.m.
