Storytelling for the Page and Stage (Jefferson)
Autobiographical storytelling has become a hugely popular art form, dominating theatre festivals, TED talks and radio programs like NPR's The Moth and Snap Judgment. Find the hilarious, dramatic and revealing stories in your own everyday life through a range of participatory exercises -- writing, discussion, and improv. We'll focus on the essential building blocks that make up a story, and how to create a compelling voice in writing or in performance. Taught by local writer, actor, and storyteller Amy Salloway.
