“Susana’s workshop that I took at Studio 303 was for me a highly productive and valuable experience. It was an environment which was supportive and critical enough to be stimulating.” Rebecca Patek
This workshop is a laboratory about transformation. Through our bodies, writing, singing, and dancing we will create performances/original work in both groups and individually. A very unique experience that will allow you to open and reconnect with creative forces that you didn’t even know were there. Open to everybody.
