This 8-week workshop prepares you for your first performance in front of an audience by breaking down and covering these different core elements of performance:
- Stage skills
- Shape of show
- Games (setting up, introducing, and playing)
- Scenes (setting up, starting, and ending)
- Audience interaction
- Ensemble-building
You’ll learn new games and explore the balance between games and scenes for a well-crafted show. The Workshop includes two performances: one is an open workshop for friends and guests and the second is a full show with a paid audience.
