15-year-old Christopher has an extraordinary brain: He is exceptional at mathematics but ill-equipped to interpret everyday life.

Now it is 7 minutes after midnight, and Christopher stands beside his neighbor’s dead dog, Wellington, who has been speared with a garden fork. Finding himself under suspicion, Christopher is determined to solve the mystery of who murdered Wellington, and he carefully records each fact of the crime. But his detective work, forbidden by his father, takes him on a thrilling journey that upturns his world.
Paul Strickland’s More Than Words: Storytelling Workshop
February 6
Most everyone can "talk with their hands." But physicality and movement in storytelling and solo performance can be an incredibly effective tool if done with intentionality and a little practice. In this workshop we'll examine how to determine what parts of your story / show would benefit from a more intentional approach to movement/physicality, and how to apply those concepts to YOUR BODY RIGHT NOW. It's your story. Tell it with YOUR BODY.

In this raucous comedy, a couple of New York City parents are helping their only child Neil find his footing as they tear his life in two. Now Neil must become the grownup in gracefully bouncing between separate households, always remembering to bring fresh underwear, laptop, phone and a smiling face. When a cynical and funny kid named Bruce steps in to become Neil’s “Jiminy Cricket” guide to divorce, he reminds Neil of his basic right to survive in one piece. (“But, like, how is that even possible?”) Surprisingly it is possible, but, according to his guide, Neil has to brave up and take a journey into a land of secret plans.
