About this listen

Come to the stage between two worlds - come to the Theatre of the Imagination. On this six-part live performance series, best-selling author and beloved cantadora (keeper of the old stories) Clarissa Pinkola Estes shares the work of her lifetime: myths, tales and poetry with the power to nourish and heal.

Contained within the audio for Theater of the Imagination are the great univeral themes - tales of loss and ressurection, of love and sacrifice; of the courage to survive- yet it is if Dr. Estes is speaking only to you.

Where does Theatre of the Imagination, Volume 1 rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

It is a wonderful listen, Clarissa's voice is wonderful to listen to and I will listen to this again. The stories and her commentary around them really kept me mesmerised. There is a lovely trail and connection between the stories which draws you through. And there is a wealth of sub-text and mythical imagery that means the stories are much more than just a few short stories.

Who was your favorite character and why?

This book has excited me about the power of story telling, archetypes and myth. There is a real clarity that comes from the way the stories are told and the connection they make with the listener. I will definitely be making further efforts to learn about story telling, archetypes and myth.

Which scene did you most enjoy?

The story telling skills of Clarissa draw you in quickly, in re-telling each story she uses atmospheric music and her wonderful tone of voice to weave compelling tales and give insights into their origin and meaning.
Each story has a message that touches the listener and brings mythical meaning to light.

If you made a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?

I love this audible book. Many poems and stories that Clarissa Pinkola-Estes reads sends shivers all over my body. She brings me endless smiles, laughter and a sense of acceptance and of nurturing.

Wonderful

More ancient wisdom passed on humbly through fairy tales. The explanations of the keys to the stories guarantee to give you a kinder perspective on your own patterns. Enriching stuff.

Real, moving, heart opening.

I love everything about Clarissa's work and this is one of my favorites, along with Women Who Run with the Wolves. A deep dive into ourselves with a true elder of our times... Nourishing on every level.
