Character Exploration & Development

In this workshop our focus is to explore the ways in which we use our physicality and voice to create a fully fleshed out character. What elements depict a character’s class, status, education, or inner thoughts and feelings? My goal is to give you several methods of exploration into a character so that you leave feeling confident that you can expand your range of expression and tackle a wider variety of characters. Be prepared to move and make weird sounds!

No experience is needed, everyone 16+ is welcome.

Lunch will be provided.
