Facilitated by Tariro Mavondo, the co-director of The Hate Race, this free in-person creative workshop is designed for young BIPOC artists, creatives, poets, spoken word artists, actors, performers, content creators, comedians, storytellers, singers, entertainers, public speakers, MCs, and podcast hosts.

This workshop will help you be heard effectively in performance spaces, giving yourself permission for the full spectrum of your personality to: shine as a performer, hold an audience, lead with authenticity and give your words breadth & dynamism. 

You’ll be learning from theatrical methods such as Meisner, Howard Fine, Tamalpa Institute, Alexander Technique and more. 

Wear loose comfortable clothing you can move in. Bring one or two texts you want to get performance-ready, a writing device / notebook, and a bottle of water.

Each registered participant gets access to a $20 ticket to the performance of The Hate Race, immediately following the workshop.

This workshop takes place in-person at Malthouse. Refreshments provided.
