This workshop teaches and practises an amazing longform combining a sincere, beated narrative story with free floating inspiration.

The Pretty Flower form consists of a main story (the bud) that inspires tangential scenes (the petals) which add characters to the next beats of the main story. Inspiration folds in on itself to create a beautiful and textured play. In this intensive toolkit workshop, participants will learn the format and exercises to take back to their teams to practice and perform.
