DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:<p><a href="http://www.tjdawe.ca/">TJ Dawe</a> is well known for his original, funny, challenging and often verbally acrobatic solo shows at the Victoria Fringe. I saw him perform this show in September and had to bring it to the Movie Monday Theatre.<br /><br />Medicine is an autobiographical monologue about a retreat TJ attended, on a hobby farm on the outskirts of Victoria, involving the ingestion of the Peruvian shamanic psychotropic plant medicine ayahuasca. The retreat was led by Dr Gabor Mat&eacute; whose work TJ made an integral part of his previous show, Lucky 9. As in all TJ's art, he has taken this life changing experience and made it intensely personal, amusing, gripping and broadly meaningful piece. event poster<br /><br />The show is approximately 90 minutes long followed by a Q&amp;A with TJ Dawe.<br /><br />Check out a <a href="http://www.cbc.ca/natureofthings/episodes/jungle-prescription">documentary</a> about Dr. Mat&eacute;'s use of this controversial substance in a therapeutic context which aired on The Nature of Things.<br /><br />TJ summarizes some of the <a href="http://www.beamsandstruts.com/bits-a-pieces/item/750-neuro-huasca">neuroscience of ayahuasca</a>, as discussed in this presentation. review<br /><br />About Movie Monday:<br />Monday nights at the Eric Martin Pavilion theatre - near Fort and Foul Bay.
