About this Event

Learning to Lose

Losers are funny. Winners are annoying. In this workshop, we'll focus on owning negative labels and having fun taking on behavior that makes your characters less than desirable. Real people are defensive, but we'll work to lower our defenses in order to maximize our agreement and not fall into the trap of arguing over reality. We'll also have fun finding justifications for these behaviors in ways that doesn't make our characters victims of their circumstances, but people actively choosing to behave the way they do. Like losers.
