I arrived at the workshop with three old, tired monologues that I have been using for years and left with three energized, focused pieces that I can’t wait to perform.

I felt safe. That feeling is so important when working on a piece or being in a show. One is vulnerable in this industry and getting involved in a space where one can incorporate positive and negative feedback is thrilling.

We are getting such good feedback from these workshops. It’s fascinating and, dare I say it, goose-bump worthy to watch an actor take direction and immediately heighten their piece. Yes, I’ve gotten actual goose bumps.

We have two new directors this coming Monday.  Mariana de Fazio, a local actor and director, is also a dialect coach. So if you have a British piece, bring it! Miryam Gordon is a local theatre critic who  graduated with a degree in Theater Directing and Playwriting.  Both kind. Both creative. Both bursting with ideas. Come play with us in a safe, supportive environment.
