Story of the Self: An Online Creative Writing Workshop for Adults
As adults, we sometimes find ourselves living day by day without much meaning or purpose. We become jaded as we work to make ends meet, and as we work to get through life. We forget that as human beings, we are meant to create stories for ourselves. When did you last learn a new skill or meet a new friend? When did you last do something different just for yourself?
For this workshop, you’ll learn how to write your personal stories creatively. At Split Arenas, we believe that the mastery of a language and a deep understanding of the self can help individuals thrive in today’s world. For this workshop, you’ll write to be understood, to be believed, and to be loved.
We will help you create a compelling piece of writing from your personal experiences, and we will provide the necessary training for you to successfully perform it as a spoken word presentation or a dramatic monologue.
Our methodology is based on more than half a decade of academic and practical research, and we have worked with more than 300 participants from Singapore and Southeast Asia, ages 18-62. The principal trainer for this workshop is a current PhD candidate specialising in the use of language and theatre for self-exploration.
Please note that this introductory workshop presupposes a basic proficiency in English. You may use a mix of languages in your creative piece for the workshop, but the bulk of the work should be in English.
Date: 24 April 2025, Thursday, 8.30pm-10pm (Singapore Time)
Venue: Online, via Zoom
The Zoom link will be sent to you via email 1 week before the workshop. You may contact darryl@split-arenas.com for more information.
