Presented in partnership with Ancram Center for the Arts.

Take your storytelling to the next level at a workshop designed for anyone who has a story to tell!

In this engaging workshop, participants will experience Ancram Center’s unique approach to storytelling. This process, developed through their celebrated Real People Real Stories (RPRS) program, utilizes fun, creative problem-solving exercises to identify different story ideas. By the workshop’s end, participants will have the start of a personal, compelling, true to life story, along with a plan to bring that story to life!

Ancram Center's Lead Teaching Artist, Sarah Katan, will work with storytellers to help them prepare their stories for the stage. According to RPRS creator, Paul Ricciardi, “The goal is not to create a polished monologue, but to allow the spontaneity of a real-life story to shine through.”
