Summer Storytelling Workshops with Bil Lepp!

Beginning and experienced storytellers alike are invited to join seasoned storytellers Carmen Agra Deedy and Bil Lepp in 3-day storytelling workshops this summer, 2012. With Bil’s skill at creating and developing tall tales and Carmen’s knack for exploring truth through personal stories, participants are bound to walk away with a better understanding of the art of storytelling and the tools to revise and perform their own unique works.

Participants will be expected to have one story that they wish to work on over the course of the weekend. Carmen and Bil will focus on story structure, language, and performing skills. Participants can expect small group sessions as well as one-on-one coaching sessions with Carmen and Bil.

Workshop 1: July 27-29, 2012

Workshop 2: August 3-4, 2012

Maximum Participants: 20

Location: Decatur, GA.
