Because I used to live in NYC I still get emails about theater performances from time to time. Fortunately, one of those recent mailers was promoting a one-man play called GRIEF: A ONE MAN SHITSHOW about a man, Colin Campbell, and his wife, whose two children, Ruby and Hart, were murdered when an intoxicated driver crashed into their car.

Colin had channeled his suffering into an extraordinary work of theater, confronting the ludicrous proposition of recollecting and forging ahead with one's life after such tremendous loss. One of the things we keep touching on in the psychedelic space is trauma. Identifying and recovering from it. People channel this effort through numerous psychedelic practices. While not an overtly psychedelic story, I think you'll find Colin's family's experience to be absolutely non-ordinary, and his transmutation of experience into art that can open and touch the psyche of others, to be truly extraordinary.
