About

We all hear about the “game of the scene” – but what does it really mean? How do we find it? Once we find it, what do we do with it?

In this workshop, we will explore the concept of game, practice finding it and playing it until it can’t be played anymore, and then discover what to do when the game runs out of steam. Be ready to have fun in this workshop!
