Live Storytelling
Storytelling belongs to all of us, and it lives in our DNA. This class helps you remember how to do it brilliantly. Ideal for writers, stand-up comedians, CEOs, and public speakers of all kinds, this class gives students the tools needed to tell compelling and vibrant personal stories. Using a playful set of story building games, students learn how to use all the tools at their disposal (narrative structure, humor, staging, descriptive language, emotional honesty, and more). Students will craft and revise three different stories and over the course of the term, and the class culminates with a Chicago-style Live Storytelling event! We all carry stories within us; this class gives students the skills needed to tell our stories with honesty and ease. Tell your story. Do it Brilliantly.
