Story is hardwired into the human brain.
When we tune in to our natural instinct for story, an extensive tool kit opens up for us as writers, actors and directors. In this workshop we will examine how and why we tell stories and what kinds of storytelling tips and tricks are hiding in our daily interactions. We will then use these tools to assess progress in our own storytelling.
This workshop is applicable to storytellers of all types, not just writers, although participants must be willing to write as part of the workshop.
Listen to Your Script is presented by Bree O'Connor. Bree is the founder and Artistic Director of Playful Substance, a New York based theatre company that is focused on developing new works. Since October of 2017, Bree has been the facilitator for Playful Substance's weekly Writers' Groups and a private writing and acting coach.
On Working with Bree...
No matter what type of writer you are , Bree will help guide you through any obstacle you are finding in your script. She doesn’t come in with tools to fix things for you. For each writer she finds a way to cater to the type of art and artist she is working with and helps you build that skill for the future.
When you work with Bree, she helps you find the layers for your characters leading you to big aha moments. Her process is filled with care and patience making her able to stretch you past your comfort zone to challenge you and your art.
