Two world-class kinetic storytellers who shared a mentor in Tony Montanaro have joined hands to further the legacy he left to spoken word artists. Milbre Burch and Antonio Rocha will present a workshop in honing the storytelling artist's instruments of voice, body, heart, memory, and imagination.
This six-day intensive course is for beginning and intermediate storytellers, and includes training in mime, improvisation, characterization and "creative writing on the tongue," small and large group critique sessions, and developing the stage craft needed to enhance the oral narrative. The workshop will culminate with a student performance on Saturday night.
