Dates/Times:
Thursday evenings, 6:30-9:30PM
August 19-September 9 (tuition also includes tickets to September 13 StorySlam)
Description:
What’s your story? And how do you present yourself?
In this storytelling workshop, you will learn the essential elements that lead to a
successful live performance of your own personal stories. We'll focus
on finding and developing your own style of storytelling, as well as
capturing an audience with rich details that linger and unfold, and on
being an authentic presence that they remember and enjoy.
Tuition includes a ticket to the First Person StorySlam on September 13,
on the theme "It's in the Mail." All workshop participants will
be automatically entered into the pool of names from which storytellers
are chosen at the FPA Story Slam that night - and this course will give
you the confidence and storytelling tools to make your performance a
success.
Expect to interact with
other participants, perform for the group, exchange feedback, judge each
others’ stories and do plenty of self-reflection along the way. Do not
expect lectures or many handouts. Bring a notebook or journal that’s
just for the storytelling workshop, and bring all your thoughts, fears,
and considerations about performing. Dress comfortably. Plan to
perform. Plan to breathe.
At First Person Arts Story Slams, storytellers are judged based on the
content and presentation of their stories. Using those two scoring
categories as our foundation, each of us will develop a polished story
for performance at World Café Live on Monday September 13, 2010.
This will be a challenging
and fun journey, appropriate for adults of all experience levels (even
if you’ve never attended a StorySlam!). Using your experiences and
feedback from others in the workshop, you’ll develop
your own method for performance.
