Guess Who is Coming to Punda Banda!

According to the Transcendence Theatre Company's Webb Page.

In March through May of 2009, the Transcendence Theatre Company will be taking its first leap towards fulfilling our mission. We will be embarking on a three month expedition at The Gertrude Pearlman Theatre in Punta Banda, Mexico.



The Transcendence Artist Project is an experiment of great magnitude uniting personal development with artistic development through individual, group, and community integration.


14 performing artists from around the country will join together with a team of holistic health, healing arts, peak performance nutrition, mindset training, & creative arts specialists to enhance the personal and collective development of the artists. The artists will be educated through various lectures, classes, and workshops.


The artists will simultaneously join together to create collaborative works of art as a company and with the community. Our works will include the performances of musicals, plays, outdoor dramas, and original works. We are extremely excited to explore community collaborative art as we join with the community of Punta Banda. We are dedicated to bringing new voices and stories to the stage. We are also very excited about our community outreach projects as we share and develop art with the youth of Punta Banda.


Our company is extremely dedicated to enriching & helping the community we are serving. Multicultural community service projects will be a major focus during our three month stay in Punta Banda.


We see the value in creating original work that speaks not just about our current observations of life but on what could be. Our intention is, through our art, to encourage individuals to commit to living their best lives ever.

Transcendence theatre is an exploration of the possibilities that can happen when a body of people from all walks of life come together to create art that is moving and relevant. We will assess the ills of current society and create works of art that will inspire people to become agents of change. We will approach this in a way that has never been done before.

Our company will be made up of individuals who have a commitment to health in mind, body, and spirit. We will explore ways of communication and consultation so as to have a peaceful, loving, and ego-less springboard from which to create. We will be the antithesis of dark, brooding, depressed, artists- we will be healthy, vibrant, and alive!!! We will be living in a microcosm of what the world should be. Our goal is to create unity within the company itself, and extend it to the surrounding communities, and BEYOND!!!

Transcendence theatre allows us to have everything we ever dreamed of. It is a place to express our unique voices, a place we can share with our friends and families, a place to thrive and be the healthiest people we've ever been. And in so being-- to become a force of CHANGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Local Couple Launchs New E-book !

Well, Dann loves to fish. And Lynn loves Dann. And they live here locally where we are surrounded by ocean and estuary waters where halibut live. So, it was a natural for Lynn and Dann to write their new e-book together. With Lynn at the keyboard, Dann sharing his years of experience and then a few months of battling with the computer, they completed their e-book. After all of that, it was how to get it out to the public and market it.

It was quite the adventure to hear Lynn tell it. I think that Lynn and Dann are contemplating writing an e-How article on the things that they learned while developing the idea of a book, then writing it with all the photos and, of course, marketing the book in our electronic media we call the WWW.

This e-book tells of Dann's time-proven technique for catching the mysterious but much-sought-after Halibut. Their e-book is a fully illustrated, practical down to earth, "how to" book with little fluff. They have great pictures and step-by-step instructions on the right way, and the fun way to have a great day on the water. They even have recipes so you can top it all off with a fantastic meal.

Take a look at the website for the ebook. It's called "Methods for Catching California Halibut", (by Expert Fisheries Technician Dann V. Manz, Department of Natural Resources) or you can email them for information at info@shallowhalibut.com.
