Reading Aloud: How to Share Your Writing with a Live Audience
with Daniel Roh
Monday, 16th of March 17:00-19:00 at Mengi
Congratulations, you've written your piece and now it's time to share it with an audience! This workshop will help you effectively translate your work when taking your writing from the page to a live audience. From strategies to face stage-fright to finding the perfect opening line, you'll leave this workshop with practical skills and experience in this aspect of your journey as a storyteller.
Daniel Roh is a Korean-American storyteller, stand-up comic and writer. He is the creator and host of "Belonging?" A stand-up comedy series about the immigrant experience in Iceland. He has performed in front of sold-out crowds in concert venues all around Reykjavík and hopes to help you boost your confidence and skillset when presenting your story to live audiences.
The session will be in English, with optional support in Polish and basic Icelandic.
Free entry. Only 12 spots available.
