The Scenic Sidecar: Hopping On and Off Narrative

This workshop will explore how to manage shiny objects in our scene work as we create a story with a scenic arch. These shiny objects, sidecars as I refer to them, can offer so much information about the world we are creating and can add the grounded non-sequiturs the audience craves. Through exercises and scene work we will learn to identify the core essence of the scene at hand and to stick with it while allowing ourselves to chase the shiny objects that can create brilliant moments. Ultimately this will free you up to be looser in your scenes while sticking with the scenes original trajectory.
