Description

Everybody loves a good story! How you tell it, makes a difference in its impact. In this class we'll not only learn the elements of a story, but discover how to translate that to the live stage. We’ll workshop developing ideas, plots, characters, etc. that will work for the theatre. Students will write stage sketches (and perhaps a longer play) and prepare to let the students perform what they write at the showcase!
