Sunday, March 8 — THE PROCESS OF DEVISING A SCRIPT
with Emily Davis, Playwright & Director of “The Great God Money”

Emily will have a conversation with the audience about Devising, the process of using interviews and improvisation to generate the material that went into the creation of The Great God Money. A technique that is more common in Great Britain than in the United States, Devising combines the skills of the playwright and actors around a specific theme.


Sunday, March 15 — DESIGNING YOUR CAREER TO FIT YOUR LIFE
with Penelope Brackett, Career & Life Coach

Penelope will hold a workshop on the process of envisioning the kind of work that will utilize your creativity and skills while satisfying your individual life goals.  This workshop will be especially helpful for those in transition from one job to another, those who are looking for a change, or those who are re-entering the workforce.


Sunday, March 22 — A HEALTHY PERSPECTIVE ON MONEY
with Steve Harper, Creativity Coach

Steve will hold a workshop on identifying preconceptions, anxieties and obstacles around money, and will explore new ways of approaching money that will free you from old constraints.  A fun, hands-on way to engage in the themes of the play while making your relationship to money healthier and more joyful.
