Storytelling for the Page and Stage (Jefferson)

Autobiographical storytelling has become a hugely popular art form, dominating theatre festivals, TED talks, podcasts and radio shows. Learn how to find and craft the rich, revealing and connective stories in your own everyday life through writing exercises, discussion, and even a little improv. Focus on the essential building blocks that make up a story, and how to create a compelling voice in writing or in performance. 

Bring a notebook and pen, or a laptop computer for in-class writing time. Taught by professional actor/writer/storyteller Amy Salloway.
