Performance Persona Workshop

Wednesday, May 4th, 2016, 7-9pm
$40 WCCW Member / $45 Regular

This workshop is designed for folks to begin the creation of a passionate performance persona that can serve as an outlet for creative, political, emotional, and formal desire. The exercises involve personal excavation of complex emotional experience, fantasy, utopia, joy, rage and humor, in order to get to the dirty and shiny diamonds of personal history. There will be movement! And writing!

Tickets



While most WCCW programming is free or donation-based, with no one turned away for lack of funds, we do offer some workshops that have fees associated. This covers materials and allows us to pay the leaders of these workshops for their time and expertise, and to put a small percentage back into WCCW. This income, in addition to memberships, is what lets us keep the doors open and the lights on. We want to make programming as accessible as possible to anyone who is interested though, so we also offer volunteer opportunities and free community tickets to each event or workshop (number varies depending on capacity of the class).Email [email protected] for more info or to find out more about this opportunity for a specific event.
