Don’t miss out on this exciting spoken word/performance poetry course, ‘Re: Discovering Your Voice.’ The inimitable writer and performer, Ben Mellor, tutors with celebrated guest Ian McMillan: 4th - 9th September, 2017 at The Garsdale Retreat.
‘Your voice is as unique to you as your face, your fingerprints. So why waste time trying to sound like anybody else?
Explore the connection between your writing, speaking, perhaps even your singing voice in this week-long course. With a range of writing, vocal and physical exercises you will identify the individual brilliance of your voice – your use of language, dialect, accent, tone, timbre, rhythm and style.
Using examples of unique voices in writing and performance as a stimulus, we will work with existing texts and create new pieces of poetry and spoken word – aiming to compose not on the page, as Ferlinghetti said, but on the tongue.’
Suitable for those finding their voice for the first time, those who feel they’ve misplaced theirs and need a rummage down the back of the sofa and those who want to develop their current skills.
