Above you see a new music video of Ann Magnuson’s “The Enchanted Forest,” taken from her Dream Girl album, and animated by Adam Dugas.

The Dream Girl album was made up largely of songs from Ann’s one-woman show, An Evening of SuRURALism™, which debuted during FestivAll in 2015, Ann explored the mysteries of dreams, what they mean, and the world in which they happen. I was proud to have contributed a couple of pieces of artwork to that show (thanks to Mark Wolfe) and was thrilled to see Ann’s dream-based creation.

It’s really cool to see Ann’s Dream Girl visions fleshed out further.

In case you don’t know already, Ann Magnuson is a writer/actress/singer/musician/performer whose eclectic resume traverses the entertainment landscape like few others. She has acted in Hollywood blockbusters, Off-Broadway plays, TV sitcoms and indie films, fronted various bands, written for numerous publications and has presented her original performance art pieces at several major museums.
