About this Event
Solos Made Easy
How to Simplify When Singing Alone
Instructor: Philip Geurin (Seattle)
Want to establish characters with strong relationships at the top of the scene? Do you ask questions instead of making statements or rely heavily on your scene partner to make choices about your relationship instead of making them yourself? If so, this workshop is for you.
In this workshop, Sonia Nam of New York will help you learn how to get to the heart of your relationship efficiently by adopting an assumption mindset, allowing you to get to songs that are deeper and richer as a result.
Students will learn how to make quick choices to endow themselves and their scene partners with gifts that establish a shared history and flesh out their relationship, and how to use revelations to earn songs that are rooten in deep emotion and high stakes.
