WRITING AND PERFORMING THE STORIES OF OUR LIVES

     This workshop is a hands-on experience using interviewing, free-writing, and collaborative improvisation to create scripts that reflect communities. Participants will work as a group to create a poetic script and will experiment with movement and structure to complete a short performance by the end of the workshop. The exercises and tools in this workshop can be used for a variety of community building projects in addition to performance works. Think of this workshop as a speed writing template for what is a longer process.
