BCAF 2017 Workshop: Slow Comedy with Megan Gray (NYC)

Workshop description:

Slow comedy doesn't mean boring or dull. It's the art of keeping your audience interested and engaged over a longer period of time while you and your partner discover a world unfolding around you.

This workshop isn't a sprint, it's a long distance run. We'll work on listening, maintaining a single point of view and delving into the minutiae of character in two and three person scenes. Let's ground into the scene and make each moment last.
