So you had a lot of extra time during the quarantine and you were inspired to write a short story. Or you pulled out a story you started a while ago. Now you wonder, is it really finished? Does it have all the elements it needs? Does it engage the readers and compel them to keep reading? Does it have a satisfying ending? An overarching theme? In the Short Story Finishing School we will analyze your story ideas or completed stories and make sure they contain enough conflict, structure, climax, tension, dialogue, character development, and plot twists to keep your readers on the edge of their sofas until the very last sentence. 4-Week Session Dates: Jan. 18, 2022- Feb. 8, 2022 (Tuesdays) Times: 1:00pm-3:00pm Location: Virtual Zoom Link Cost: $144-$168 For more information on this event and class registration please visit HERE!

Bethany Green constantly blurs boundaries between dance and theatre in dramatically driven works that are embedded in the exploration of the human experience. She creates atmospheric, cinematic works that offer performers a space to emphasize the exploration of real life situations, emotions and encounters. Rounding out the program is a World Premiere from Artistic Director and Resident Artist, Carly Topazio. As a choreographer, creator, and director, Topazio can best be described as an abstract storyteller always in pursuit of a sincere and human expression.
