DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DYSLEXIC?

This Workshop will help you identify and address Dyslexia!

* Learn the six syllable types and how learning them, allows you to read and figure out pronunciation for any word and how it helps spelling as well.

*Do Scene work and learn how to break down words into syllables.

*Learn how breaking down the NUMBER of syllables in each word and how rhythms in
language can enhance the structure of it.   Hear rhythms, which make the text
far less daunting and allow you to take control of it.

*Learn the techniques of finding emotional ties to the sound of certain words that are difficult. So, by breaking down the syllables (technical) and then creating emotional ties
to those particular words, the meaning which is tied into the sound of them, will become deeper to you.

*Learn the five most important things to do when given a very short amount of time with a difficult (language-wise) script.

THAT’S WHAT SHE SAID

June 4th – July 16th 2010
(Friday Evenings)


Girl on Girl Music and Comedy

  That’s What She Said, is a mad musical bouquet of imaginative,
comic songs about lesbians. Amy Turner, vocalist, and Kathryn Lounsbery,
pianist and vocalist, effortlessly take their audiences on a whirlwind tour
through music: jazz, rap, folk, disco, light opera, and power ballads, to
name a few, are presented on an eco-friendly silver platter. Their
musical versatility and impeccable comic timing have quickly garnered rave
reviews and a world-wide following. Recently named "Best Comedy Show to
Make You Pee Your Pants" by *Jane and Jane Magazine*, Amy and Kathryn have
taken their show across the country, on the high seas, to Mexico, and are
recent darlings of the Film Festival circuit with their hard-core rap homage
to the oldest Lesbian joke: U-Haul: The Music Video.
