Women’s Performance Workshop
|
Following the success of the Women’s Performance Workshop earlier this year, the Strand is pleased to again offer a FREE introductory Women’s Performance Workshop to women-identified Baltimore community members. The workshop will be led by the Strand’s Founding Artistic Director (2007-2012), Jayme Kilburn, along with previous WPW participants.
The workshop is open to all women-identified, trans, and non-binary community members in Baltimore City and beyond. It is not necessary to have any prior performance experience to participate in the workshop.
By using collaborative performance-based techniques, community-engaged exercises, and narrative writing, the WPW creates a space where women can generate their own solo performance based on personal stories. The workshop culminates in a performance on Saturday, August 18th at 8pm.
If you are interested in participating, please email Jayme Kilburn (project organizer): jayme@strand-theater.org with your reason for wanting to participate and any accommodations that would make participating easier. Space is limited so please send your inquiry ASAP (and no later than August 1st).

*The WPW is made possible by Engaged Cornell (https://engaged.cornell.edu/)
