Join us for a rich and lively evening of exceptional improvisational movement theater!
Body Tales performances open windows to our hearts, minds and embodied values. Performing is a unique aspect of this somatic practice. Come to a Body Tales performance for an all-too-rare opportunity to see people create art from real life and to witness the humanity, depth, humor, courage and artistry that emerges from this work.

"There is a constant unpredictability, a refreshing honesty...the result is very good indeed — touching, humorous and affecting."
— The Scotsman, Edinburgh Fringe Festival
"Corson dances in-between the factual and the mythological, creating modern-day mythology for the Earth — it's great stuff!"
— Luisah Teish, author & teacher
"Corson's text is explicit and powerful; her delivery strong, her movement appropriate to the text and beautiful to watch. Corson uses theater to transform reality and consciousness."
