Flights of Foundry 2021

An imaginative, fun, deep dive into strengthening your writing as we bounce between character and world building. With a focus around acknowledging how the Hero's Journey works, yet challenging its structure in creative storytelling as we look at alternate roads, we'll have fun conquering structure and character motivation as you examine your fiction alongside your own personal narrative! This workshop can help you in that painful act of pulling off the band-aid of creating a game plan for the new work you’re creating or lead to new revelations. Or help you discover a new moment in your story and/or journey. Using techniques from TV, comic book, and musical theater writing, writers will be lead through several creative methods of plotting to see what works for them. As a teacher, Crystal instructs at Theater Development Fund, Primary Stages, Pace University, and is a guest artist around the country.
