Class Description
So, you’ve been in plays or musicals or other types of performances before, but never got to have a hand in creating them? Now is your chance!
We are offering a performance-making workshop where the participants will be creating scenes using seven different contemporary techniques of theatre composition. There will be ten sessions, with the last day giving participants a chance to perform for each other and a few of their invited guests.
You will leave this class with a huge toolbox of techniques and exercises to create your own stunning performances!
