Picture

We took to the streets!

From the North & South we come
From the East & West
we all are one,
Held in the arms
of our mother
earth, air, fire, water
This is the world we love
​from the earth
to the sky above
It's in our hands
across the lands
to listen to the call of LOVE
Listen to the Call of LOVE!
(song by Beth Fairservis)

uZen is passionate about Mindfulness, Music, Puppets and Activism. We make puppets -- from giant ones pulled on wheeled carts, to small, delicate paper beings.  We have traveled all across Western Mass to city halls, streets and festivals expressing the truth about Climate Change, and the need to transform our "way of life" from a consumption based society to a world defined by the core values of
loving kindness, peace, equality and sustainability.

Our work is dependent on the generous donations of our friends and sponsors. If you would like to become a Sponsor you can go to our Patreon site here.

MuZen believes that humanity must remember our roots as people of the earth. We are deeply grateful to the surviving indigenous communities of our planet who model a harmonious relationship with all of nature.

We call upon the wisdom of our spiritual teachers, the Buddha in particular, who taught that the way we see the world is deeply influenced by the stories we weave in our minds, and as we tune our minds, calm our emotions, and find peace in our bodies, we naturally evolve a compassionate society where we relate with all beings and the earth itself  with equality and respect.

Our theater practices seek to guide both players and audience members to experience innately the truth of our interdependent existence. Our street theater attempts to bring about something beyond direct protest. We seek to illuminate the big picture: the elements, history, personal responsability,
​and the truth of the suffering we see on earth.

Creativity can illuminate and therefore transcend the dualism of right and wrong, and illuminate a path which is fun and inspiring. We draw inspiration from the Zen Peacemakers who follow the Three Tenets:
Not Knowing, Bearing Witness, & Taking Creative Action.

At MuZen we add creativity to our action.
​We feel that making art is an essential, natural gift of being human, ​which is to be creative!
