GOT A GREAT IDEA FOR AND NEED AN AUDIENCE FOR YOUR EVENT?
Learn how to produce your own work.
PRODUCE IT is a quick and dirty workshop that goes through the process and challenges of finding your audience, getting them to your venue and keeping them connected long after the lights go down.
After all, producing your event isn't just about putting on a good show. It's about generating buzz and knowing how to sell your wares so that you can keep on creating the way you want to create. Making your work commercially successful doesn’t mean you have to compromise your vision; rather, you simply have to learn how to frame your vision in such a way that everyone can understand it.
We offer 2 Different Produce It Workshop Formats:

Designed to be an intensive, practical boost for your next show.

- Break down your creative concept and find the pieces that you can use to connect to new types of audiences as we work together to reshape how you communicate.
