Presented by PEN Center through a grant from the City of West Hollywood through WeHo Arts (www.weho.org/arts). Tickets are $0-$65.
Your words are in print but the work is not over, you need to sell books. Is it possible to read your work better than an Oscar winning actor? According to renowned voice over actor Dave Thomas it is.
This lecture will include performance demonstrations, and discuss such topics as:
• Sincerity and the power of exposing your soul.
• The ‘dead poet,’ or monochromatic reads.
• How bad acting can kill a good read.Reading your Work like a Storytelling God: A Voice Lecture with Dave Thomas
