The language of a scene is used to describe how two characters interact with each other on-stage. In this workshop, we will explore how assumptions are naturally created not just by what the characters are saying to each other but how they are saying it and how much they are saying — and how that gives us clues as to what they already know and feel about each other. By developing this listening skill on-stage, your work can become more detailed and nuanced, and it can create scenes and relationships that are fun to explore.
