Workshop: The Scene w/ GIRLish Chicago

Saturday, November 12th
2pm-5pm (3 hours)
The Pilates Studio in Hadley, MA
***This is an Advanced Workshop. Prerequisite: Completion of Zen 4***

Good scenes don't happen by accident; here you will learn why some scenes succeed and some scenes fail. Learn the Who/What/Where of a scene, focus on using your environment, and progressing the action while increasing your believability on stage.

Workshop participants can look forward to individual feedback & a chance to demonstrate what they've learned in structured performance time throughout the workshop.
