Narrative Skills

Everyone loves a good story.  And by asking ourselves the right kinds of questions, we can learn to develop our own riveting narratives based on a simple two person scene.  In this workshop we'll be tracking things like needs, wants, hopes and fears to weave compelling threads of story together and create pieces that are as dramatically satisfying as they are funny.
