What are the five elements of any story that we bring to the stage? What do we really mean by the story’s “essence?” How do we keep our enactments open to the multilayered meanings of a teller’s story? How do we train our ears to hear in terms of stories? These questions will shape this workshop, building the skills of pt actors and conductors as we perform lots of stories for each other and participate in tailored exercises to build our “story sense.”

Prerequisite: Core Training, or its equivalent
