From Story To Stage:

​Dramatizing Life to Foster Dialogue

     Whether you consider yourself more of an actor, director, dancer, designer, or other– all of us are storytellers in the theater. Effective storytelling and critical listening are essential tools for dramatists and citizens of our complex society. In this workshop, you will share and listen to real stories and shape them into short scenes to start conversations. Come prepared to share a brief story about a time when you faced a challenge and to listen actively and constructively as others share. Working in small groups, you will use a collaborative process derived from community performance methods to bring the story to life as a thought-provoking scene for a target audience.
