Basics of Storytelling

Elemental! We'll discuss story structure, raising stakes, scene and summary, major and minor themes, and significant details. This will be the toolboxyou'll use to transform your personal true story into a comedic, engaging and authentic onstage performance. Each camper will develop one story of his or her own and receive advice and feedback from the coach and their campmates in this lab-style learning experience.
