WORKSHOP: "Confessing In Spoken Word" with ArunDitha

  • Sing LIt Station 22 Dickson Road Singapore, 209506 Singapore (map)

Drawing on our experiences with our family histories, cultural backgrounds, and balancing/navigating the multitude of identities we all hold, Confessing In Spoken Word is a workshop which supports participants to connect with their inner selves, and to write from that place. Where are the universal themes in your own experiences? How might we find release when we choose to articulate something? These are the questions students will ask in this rewarding and intimate workshop. They will also learn some basic techniques for writing and performance.
