About the event
Description: Compelling storytelling in playwriting is rooted in character development. In this virtual generative character development workshop, participants will dig deep into the characters in the worlds of their work using theatrical jazz performance practices. We will use text from Omi Osun/Dr. Joni L. Jones, Theatrical Jazz: Performance, Àse, and the Power of the Present Moment, as we contemplate the question, what does telling the "truth" have to do with theatre, and how does it inform my character development and archetypes? Participants will leave with prompts and activities designed to find the truth of the characters and figures that drive the plot forward.
