Want to learn how to write and perform your stories through improvisation practices?

At the heart of performance is confidence and a clear understanding of where your power comes from as an artist. More than entertainment, performance is how artists can communicate and draw people in.

On Tuesday August 4th and Tuesday August 11th, we will be hosting a two-part workshop in collaboration with multidisciplinary artist Tsoholo Khalema to build and strengthen your performance and creative writing skills through improvisation activities!

To sign up for this workshop, make sure to register for Creative Connect! Both workshops will occur on Zoom at 3pm.
