"Resonance is a free, all-ages event hosted by St. Brigid’s Episcopal Church and Oceanside Theatre Company, that builds community through creative expression. Held in OTC's Studio 219 (219 North Coast Highway), this is a space for all creatively-inclined people — artists, musicians, writers, and more — to showcase their work and to practice spontaneous creation together. It’s not quite an open mic, jam session, drum circle, or art night — but it has elements of all of these. All are welcome to participate as much or as little as they choose. If you’d prefer to just come and enjoy the vibe and performances, you are welcome to do that too." Visit: Resonance Collaborative Open Mic Oceanside Theater Company on Instagram and Facebook

A performance about aging and the weight of being human. Performed by Esther Gamez-Rubio, Martha Rolón de la Peña, Wilfrido Terrazas, and Ivan Trujillo. This extended collaborative work explores the evolving nature of the body—how it ages, expands, and transforms. Inspired by the writings of philosopher Jean-Luc Nancy, the performance unfolds as a corporeal meditation on identity, form, and the limits of physical being. Each performer—including Gámez Rubio, Martha Rolón de la Peña (clarinet/saxophone), Iván Trujillo Luna (trumpet), and Wilfrido Terrazas (flute)—offers a solo improvisation before coming together in a final group performance that blends sound, movement, projection, and textile. The result is part concert, part ritual: a deeply felt and intimate encounter with the body—its beauty, its strangeness, and its constant transformation.
