Your Voice as an Artist: Jill Bernard

  • The Shed 807 East Main Street Durham, NC, 27701 United States (map)

SATURDAY, AUG 5 1-4PM

Not a traditional voice class, instead, we want to look at how you as a human being can create art that reflects what you want to say to the world. Of course we can do improv scenes about anything, but a playwright is able to choose their subject. This class guides you to examine what you really would like to improvise about.

Note: This workshop is for woman and femme identified students only. 

Three Hours / Limit 16 Students / Admission: $40*
*All proceeds for this special workshop go toward space rental, flight reimbursement for Comedy Assembly guests and directly to Jill Bernard. No barrier to entry, please contact hello[at]thisismettlesome.com to arrange a scholarship.
