Debut of Owning The Stage class in Columbus, OH
Tomorrow I leave for Columbus, Ohio to teach Owning The Stage as a class for the very first time! Actually it's not quite the full class, which takes 12 hours, but more of a 90-minute sampler. Even so, I'm flattered that it's far and away the most popular class being offered at the JAD "Apple Corps" district school.
I've designed a 90 minute experience that focuses on the importance of an authentic story. We start by demonstrating that it's important, then we talk about how to create a great story for a performance (the "4-things" model that I am so fond of), then we get some victims up to the front of the class to show everyone how it works.
Wish me luck!
Tom
