Do you have a story you're looking to workshop for a performance, a business presentation or a just a party?  Do you want expert feedback and a little more time to work out the kinks in front of a receptive audience?!?

In this intensive three-hour workshop, students will have the opportunity to workshop stories in a small group setting. The class will begin with a short warm-up then dive right into storytelling and group discussion. Students will have the chance to workshop at least two stories (if not more!) and will come away from the class feeling more confident and comfortable sharing stories in front of a crowd.

5. Geeking Out: a Comedy & Storytelling Show Devoted to Superfans

Geeking Out is a comedy & storytelling show that brings crazy-talented performers together for a night of shameless nerding out on the bands they love, the celebrities they obsess over and the video games that nearly wore their thumbs to stumps (and that’s just the tip of the fanatical iceberg).

Join us for a night of true tales, stand-up and PowerPoint presentations that embrace the undying enthusiasm and unchallengeable knowledge of a SUPERFAN!

Geeking Out is hosted by bespectacled comedy people Nate Fernald and Kerri Doherty. You can get tickets here: http://www.ticketweb.com/t3/sale/SaleEventDetail?dispatch=loadSelectionData&eventId=3565864
