SUMMARY:BACKSTAGE with The Sober Curator: Media Night | Rufi Thorpe Live
DESCRIPTION:BACKSTAGE with The Sober Curator: Rufi Thorpe Live\nYour first BACKSTAGE event is here. And we are not starting small. \nRufi Thorpe\, the author of Margo’s Got Money Troubles\, is joining us live for an intimate conversation inside the BACKSTAGE community. If you’ve been watching the Apple TV+ series (premiering April 15\, one week before we meet)\, you already know why this matters. If you read the book when we first covered it in our Addiction Fiction section two years ago\, you’ve been waiting for this moment. \nThis is not a panel. This is not a press junket. This is a small\, private group conversation with the woman who created Margo\, Jinx\, Shyanne\, and one of the most talked-about stories in pop culture right now. \nWe will talk about the book. The show. The characters. What it means to write addiction and recovery as just part of who a person is\, instead of a plot device or a cautionary tale. \nThis event is exclusively for BACKSTAGE Founding Members. \nNot a member yet? Join BACKSTAGE here. \nRead more here: Margo’s Got Money Troubles Is Coming to Apple TV+ and We Are So Ready

SUMMARY:BACKSTAGE with The Sober Curator: Studio Night | Unpolished: Art Journaling with Krysty Krywko
DESCRIPTION:BACKSTAGE with The Sober Curator: Studio Night | Unpolished: Art Journaling with Krysty Krywko\nSobriety creates space. Space where numbing used to be. Space where noise used to live. Space where we start to hear ourselves again. thesobercurator \nUnpolished is Krysty Krywko’s bi-weekly creative practice column here at The Sober Curator\, and on April 29 she is bringing it live into the BACKSTAGE community for the very first time. \nThis is not an art class. This is not a craft project. There is no grade\, no aesthetic standard\, and no pressure to produce anything worth showing anyone. \nThis is one hour of showing up for yourself with a pen\, a notebook\, and a willingness to make something honest. \nWhat to bring: \n\nA sketchbook\, notebook\, or stack of index cards\nA pen or pencil\nOptional: colored pens\, markers\, highlighters\, inexpensive acrylic paints\nOld magazines\, newspapers\, or junk mail for collage\nCuriosity\nA willingness to make something without fixing it\n\nNo fancy supplies. No perfect handwriting. No pressure to do it right. \nAbout Krysty Krywko: Krysty is seven years sober\, midlife\, divorced\, and deeply committed to helping women explore their relationship with alcohol and reclaim their creativity. Her work lives at the intersection of sobriety\, identity\, and becoming. \nThis event is exclusively for BACKSTAGE members. Not a member yet? Join BACKSTAGE here.

SUMMARY:BACKSTAGE with The Sober Curator: Media Night | Drunk on Film with Ted Mandell
DESCRIPTION:BACKSTAGE with The Sober Curator: Media Night | Drunk on Film with Ted Mandell\nBefore we got sober\, Hollywood had already been teaching us how to drink. \nOn June 10\, BACKSTAGE welcomes Ted Mandell from the University of Notre Dame\, co-creator of Drunk on Film\, one of the most talked-about university courses in the country. The class analyzes how alcohol consumption is portrayed in movies and advertising\, and examines the psychology behind why we were sold the idea that drinking is glamorous\, hilarious\, rebellious\, and essential to a good time. \nFrom James Bond to frat comedies to the red solo cup as cultural icon\, Ted’s course asks the question this community already knows the answer to: what did pop culture do to our relationship with alcohol\, and how long were we watching before we noticed? \nThis is Media Night built for exactly the kind of people who are in this room. \nThe course has run for years at Notre Dame and consistently results in students reconsidering their own drinking habits. It also includes RED CUP\, a theatrical production featuring personal essays and experiences written by students themselves. \nCome ready to talk about the movies that shaped how you thought about drinking before you decided to stop. \nThis event is exclusively for BACKSTAGE members.
