D&I and Consent Seminar
With Luis Cortez
$15 | Sunday | August 21st | 2pm - 4pm
Over the last few years we have seen interest grow in the worlds of Diversity, Inclusion and Consent. But they encompass so much information that it can be overwhelming deciding where to begin or how that might look for your theater or team. In this Seminar, Justin Green and Luis Cortes will walk you through the basics of these topics and answer those burning questions that you’ve had but have not been able to ask. Our goal is to arm you with enough information so that you can confidently begin doing your own research, work and growth for you and your theater/team.
Scene Work Clinic

$25 | Sunday | August 21st | 6pm - 8pm

Has it been a while since you went over your basics? With 25 years experience in both short and long form improv, Luis Cortes will walk you through a personalized refresher and touch up clinic to help you reach the next level in your improv journey.
