Do you listen to The Moth or This American Life on NPR and think, "I can do that - I have stories to tell!" Would you like to be a more effective public speaker, or just spin a good yarn at a party? If so, this all-day workshop will fill the bill. Led by Moth GrandSLAM champ Tracey Segarra, this interactive, fun primer will teach you the basics of effective storytelling using some fun exercises to help uncover your own stories. Everyone will leave with at least one good idea for a story to develop to tell friends, family or on a stage.
