It's All About You: One-Person Show Workshop (1 Night)
Are you an actor or a comedian yearning for your 15 minutes of fame? A solo-show could help launch your career and get you the attention that you deserve. It worked for Whoopi Goldberg and Spaulding Gray! In this class, actor, writer, and director Iris Bahr will show you how to cook up a stellar solo performance piece and get it on the stage. We'll experiment with the different flavors of one-person shows (storytelling or dialogue) and do 2-3 fun, improvisational writing exercises that will make it easy to mine your life for entertaining stories and engaging characters. Iris will even share her secrets for making your show come to fruition. By the end of class, you'll have written the beginnings of your show and have found your literary mojo, even if you didn't know that you had any!
