Free Workshops, Continued

I must say that I had such a great group of kids on Saturday for the writing monologues workshop. They ranged in age from mid-teens to early twenties. They were focused, talented, respectful of one another and incorporated my notes into their second drafts effortlessly. I was really impressed. And Executive Director James Robinson and Program Director Arthi Sundaresh could not have been more helpful. I only hope that I can teach there again some day.

Free Workshops


Next Saturday, I am fortunate enough to be giving a monologue-writing workshop at Youth Pride Rhode Island (link above). It's the first of twelve creative workshops offered for free for youth 13-23 years old. You can get a registration form on their website. Youth Pride's mission is to "provide support, advocacy, and education for youth and young adults throughout Rhode Island who are impacted by sexual orientation and gender identity/expression." The executive director is my long-time friend and favorite theatre director, James Robinson.
