CLASS DESCRIPTION

You have a show in you.
We all have show-worthy stories and a voice to tell them. June FAILSPACE classes are dedicated to exploring stories rooted inside environmental, social, and political change inside a brave, inclusive playspace for artists of all disciplines. We will explore the feeling of isolation in media representation and discuss how to break the barrier of media representatives and take control of our narratives. Inside these stories of change, we will utilize the power of STORYTELLING to connect, listen, move, collaborate and enact change. We will do so through learning how to build an ensemble, creating small scale work with prompts, absorbing participant feedback, and digging deeper into passion and purpose.
