Introduction to Gardening the Biodynamic Way

with Dr Sue Peat and Douglas Davidson

Sunday 28 September 2-5pm

Biodynamics is an organic method of cultivation arising out of Rudolf Steiner’s Spiritual research. It was his response to questions from farmers who were unhappy with ‘chemical’ agriculture. Biodynamics works with the rhythms of the movements of the Sun, Moon, planets and stars, to which the plants respond. The workshop will cover the background of the biodynamic planting calendar and using the biodynamic preparations. It’s autumn so we will focus on sharing tips for harvesting, composting and preparing your garden for winter. For the last hour, we’ll stir the horn manure preparation (known as 500), so bring an empty screw top bottle if you would like to take some home. A 500ml bottle is enough for an average garden. The workshop is suitable for those new to biodynamics and for anyone who would like to give their garden, window boxes or house plants an autumn treat!
Sue and Douglas are enthusiastic gardeners with lots of practical experience in biodynamic gardening.

All are welcome, no need to book.

Twelfth Night

Monday 11 August 9am - Friday 15 August 5pm

Shakespeare Week at Rudolf Steiner House London

A pair of twins emerge from the ocean. Parted by a storm and shipwreck, each is sure the other is drowned as they come separately ashore on the coast of Illyria. Beneath their outwardly confusing similarity, their different destinies lead them into the same social psychic disorder which at first they unwittingly compound. The tenuous symmetry of the plot embraces illusion and misrule, and justly leaves some unfinished business at the end that reflects the disparate beginning.

Twelfth Night leads us from the innocence of the Early Comedies into the well-known experiences of the Tragedies. The less well-understood ambiguous, confused, social, personal, and gender realities of that transition expose an entertaining but tragic chaos. This play picks up a teasing loose end from As You Like It, and leaves a bitter remainder for Hamlet. The counter-intuitive polarities remind us of the excesses of the Saturnalia and reveal what is often hidden by the norms of convention. The questions the play poses about identity, delusion, recognition, and destiny all relate timelessly to our individual and social experience today.

Sarah Kane and Andrew Wolpert will be offering speech, drama workshops, close study of the text, lectures, discussions, and a visit to see a production of the play at The Globe Theatre.

The course fee of £465 includes a Groundling theatre ticket, morning coffee and afternoon tea.

Biodynamics is an organic method of cultivation arising out of Rudolf Steiner’s Spiritual research. It was his response to questions from farmers who were unhappy with ‘chemical’ agriculture. Biodynamics works with the rhythms of the movements of the Sun, Moon, planets and stars, to which the plants respond. The workshop will cover the background to the biodynamic planting calendar and using the biodynamic preparations. It’s coming up to summer, a time when the results of our endeavours begin to flower and fruit, and biodynamics comes into its own. The workshop will include presentations of research that demonstrate the benefits that biodynamics brings to the environment, the soil, the plants and to improvements in food quality.

For the last hour, we’ll stir the horn manure preparation (known as 500), so bring an empty screw top bottle if you would like to take some home. A 500ml bottle is enough for an average garden. The workshop is suitable for those new to biodynamics and for anyone who would like to give their garden, window boxes or house plants a summer treat!

The journey of the Anthroposophical movement from the passing of Rudolf Steiner until today (Zoom)
Friday 11 July 7pm - 8.30pm

with Eric Klein

What’s happened over the last 100 years? Can we even imagine life without the possibility of gathering from all over the world on zoom to consider what life was actually like 100 years ago? In the time of Steiner there was not even the possibility of jumping on Easy Jet from London to Switzerland to attend an ‘in person’ talk delivered by the man himself. Now his written words are accessible to anyone who looks no further than a screen. Between then and now the world has changed dramatically, as has the application of his ideas to the developing areas of science and the arts. His insights, particularly those that relate to the nature of the human being and our connection to both the physical and the spiritual worlds, are timeless, and certainly offer inspiration for another 100 years at the very least.

Eric Klein was born and raised in an Anthroposophic home in New York and was educated at the Rudolf Steiner School in New York City, before training as a concert musician at the Manhattan School of Music. His life’s journey has gone through Harvard Business School and the Christian Community Seminary in Stuttgart, Germany before settling in England in 2002. He has worked as a performing musician, composer, conductor, teacher and lecturer.

All welcome, no need to book, no charge. Events are not recorded and zoom meetings are limited to 100 participants. Voluntary donations towards costs are gratefully received and can be made by cash donation on the day, transfer to a Nationwide account held for this purpose or via Paypal.

A preview performance of The Diaries of Adam and Eve
Friday 4 July 8.30pm

Adapted from Mark Twain

A Theatre Research Project

With actors Jan Martin & German Segal
Directed by Christopher Marcus
Dramaturgy by Andrew Upton

Last year was the 100 th anniversary of a series of lectures given to actors by Rudolf Steiner in 1924, known as the Speech and Drama Course. Steiner died six months later and was unable to further develop his indications to actors himself. His wife Marie Steiner, herself an actress, continued to work with the actors (particularly on the indications for speech) and Michael Chekhov went on to develop his own acting techniques inspired by Steiner, who he had met. However, the Course itself remains largely unknown and untested beyond a narrow circle of practitioners.

Our project began in March last year with the aim of researching anew the efficacy of Steiner’s Speech and Drama Course with actors as yet unfamiliar with it, via the process of creating a piece of theatre using his indications. A four-month training and devising process concluded in The Diaries of Adam and Eve - a dramatized synthesis of Mark Twain`s texts Adam’s Diary (1893) and Eve’s Diary (1905). In July we were invited to perform this piece at an international Theatre Festival at the Goetheanum, Switzerland, marking the centenary of Steiner’s lectures on speech and drama at the place where he had given them.

A year later, in this second edition of The Diaries of Adam and Eve with a new actor, we have been able to further research Steiner’s indications to actors. We have especially explored what Steiner calls ‘sound gestures’ and ‘sound qualities’, through which the actor allows the gestures and qualities of speech sounds to replace his/her subjective emotion in an artistic unity of sense and sensibility.

The production plans to tour in the autumn to various countries including Finland, Poland, Italy and UK.

How can we help Children Negotiate the Journey through Childhood Now?

Friday 4 July 7pm - 8.30pm

with Helen Kinsey

The threats to childhood in the digital age are different to those in the industrial age and yet the journey through childhood to adulthood from a developmental perspective, remains the same. In our age, an increasing number of children are suffering from mental ill health. What can be done? We will explore this question by looking at the journey through childhood from a Waldorf perspective, comparing it with a mainstream experience and drawing out the strengths and weaknesses of both.

Helen is an anthroposophist and has been teaching in the Waldorf School for 20 years, mostly as a class teacher. She now teaches as a mainstream primary teacher.

All welcome, no need to book, no charge. Events are not recorded and zoom meetings are limited to 100 participants. Voluntary donations towards costs are gratefully received and can be made by cash donation on the day, transfer to a Nationwide account held for this purpose or via Paypal.
