The Willow Tree Project

Why The Willow Tree Project?
Celtic symbolism of WILLOW TREES represents
nature's balance. They are a symbol of fertility
and fresh life, adapting to change and staying
alive due to adaptability and power. Willow Trees are a potent symbol of survival as they can withstand high wind storms and other natural disasters. Because Seniors, like the Willow Tree have beauty, energy and strength, The Northern Starz Willow Tree Project offers programs that provide...BALANCE, COURAGE, GROWTH, FLEXIBILITY, MOTIVATION, THEATRE, HARMONY, RESILIENCE, STRENGTH, AND SOCIALIZATION.
​
We invite our 55+ seniors to be a part of our Willow Tree Project.

Jewels of deNial Troupe
About the troupe
“The Jewels of deNial '' is a 55+ performance troupe, performing in a “Radio Show” style theatre style. Currently an all female troupe, these ladies agree that the process of aging has its challenges, but it doesn't have to! They meet weekly (in the non-winter months) to rehearse the radio scripts and of course, brainstorm new ideas for writing their own scripts - which are based mostly on real life events. Of course, those stories have been modified with a little extra pizazz and razzle dazzle. As they say, laughter is good medicine ...and goodness, the Jewels of deNial sure do laugh a lot!
The ”Jewels of deNial” perform both on-site at Northern Starz with luncheon and dinner theatre performances ~ and will also come to YOU at your office, coffee club, luncheon, senior center, or any other venue!

NEW at Northern Starz for our friends 55+, and part of the Willow Tree Project! Do you remember a day when you were once on the performance stage? Are you interested in doing that once again, but find that you can’t remember what you had for breakfast, let alone memorize lines for a play! Then come join us in this welcoming and FUN stage opportunity! We will read new, original scripts that have been written just for those of us who are “aging”! Have fun on stage - without any pressure! (Yes! You can keep your script in your hand if you want to!) NOTE: The final date of each opportunity will be a “capstone” presentation of each of the One Acts. We will have coffee too!
