Full Body Whisper is a feature-length documentary about Joyce Piven. A Chicago legend, Joyce has taught students improvisation and theater games. Joyce encourages her students to face the chaos of creativity with open hearts; she leaps into the chaos and creates art. Among her students are her son, Jeremy Piven, and her friend Nancy's children (including John and Joan Cusack). During the fortieth year of the Piven Theatre Workshop, co-founded by Joyce and her late husband, Byrne Piven, Ravi Batista, an actress in Joyce's production of Chekhov's Three Sisters, interviewed Joyce, her family and her former students to learn more about Joyce. It's an inspiring story of one woman's passion for acting and theater and how she shared it with kids in Evanston, IL.
