WORKSHOP A:

Paul Sills' Story Theater Intensive, with Carol and Neva Sills
Story Theater is a form evolved by Paul Sills to transform stories and literature for the stage. This curriculum was created by Paul in a workshop he conducted in Los Angeles in 2008. In ten workshops held over a five day period, the intensive will include the adaptation of folk tales by the group during a rehearsal process that leads to performance. The approach emphasizes communication through the playing of Spolin theater games. Carol and Neva Sills will coach together for a second year.
WORKSHOP B:
July 13 through 17
Paul Sills' Theater Game Intensive, with Aretha Sills
Paul Sills' concentrated course in playing Viola Spolin's exercises. The ten-session, five day improvisational theater workshop will be coached by Aretha Sills, using Paul Sills' lesson plan. Aretha has taught at Bay Area TheaterSports, Bard College Cabaret, and privately in San Francisco and Los Angeles.
