If you're looking for community building options, this is your program! Theater Games are all about connection, focus, and fun.

Do you have a play or musical coming up, and would like to offer a workshop for actors or audience to explore the themes of the play? I can develop that for you! Workshops can range from 30 minutes to 2 hours, and combine games, discussion, play analysis, and more to dig deep into the themes of a particular work. As these workshops are developed specifically for the chosen play, they are fully customizable to your goals! Workshops can be tailored to any age range and number of participants, and created to be shared before or after experiencing the show, depending on your preference.
