Saying It Like It Is
“Kathryn Blume is Al Gore on crack. With red hair. And a uterus.”
I’ve been called a lot of things in my years as an actor and activist: A quirky Sarah Jessica Parker. A commie pinko. A hopium toker. Adorable.
You’ve got to figure with reactions like that, you must at least be getting someone’s attention. The paradox of doing politically-oriented theater, which also strives to be high quality art, is that you’re trying to get someone’s attention without looking like you are. You’re trying to encourage your audience to be mindful of a relevant issue by telling a story so good, they won’t be consciously aware that you’re trying to teach them something.

About Venus Rising
Venus Rising Magazine is an online magazine designed to inspire and empower women. Based in Burlington, Vermont, our mission is to offer insight and inspiration through creative content that feeds the spirit.
Venus Rising is like no other publication. Most astrology-based websites narrowly focus on zodiac profiles and inter-sign compatibility. Most women's magazines narrowly focus on fashion, looks, and catching and keeping a man. We seek to connect the power and mystique of being a woman with a grounded look at astrology and other aspects of healthy living. Our regular features on yoga, film & books, seasonal food, inspirational women, and of course astrology strive to meet the more realistic needs of women.
Please make yourself at home here at Venus Rising Magazine. Share a bit of yourself in the Readers' Corner. Learn more about your place in the world by creating your birth chart or by asking Ann for some Astral Advice. Enjoy!
