“Aaron was masterful at making people feel comfortable and helping them take risks.”
In this four-week workshop, you’ll learn the tools that the pros use to make their personal stories come alive on stage. From unexpected story structures to humor's ability to create a deeper emotional space, you'll learn how to take your storytelling to the next level. Aaron Wolfe and a rotating group of special guests from Boston's podcasting and storytelling world will offer critiques and guidance as you refine your story and then perform it in a showcase event at the PRX Podcast Garage.
The class meets at the PRX Podcast Garage (267 Western Ave., Allston) on Sundays, 6:30-8:30 p.m. from October 29 to November 19.
