Whether you see yourself as a playwright, an actor, a director, a producer, a designer, or all (or none!) of the above, if you are a human you can make a solo show. But do you want to? And how do you start? Are there rules? WHAT EVEN IS A SOLO SHOW!?
Bring all your questions. Let’s talk about it.
Erika MacDonald, award-winning American solo performer and Cincinnati Playhouse in the Park Resident Artist, has been creating and presenting original work on stages across North America since 2004. She says, “I’ve made all the mistakes, and I know what it takes.”
This is not a lecture on writing technique. This is also not an acting class. Erika will share about her process and then be wide open for all questions on everything you’ve ever wondered about solo performance but have been too afraid to ask!
This 90-minute session is a low-stakes, high-reward chance to sit in a room full of curious people, and spy into one artist’s journey into solo performance. You will walk away empowered to take the next step on your own journey IF YOU SO CHOOSE and ON YOUR OWN TERMS.
Because that’s what solo performance is all about: Owning your voice. And choosing when and how to share it with the world.
Get curious. Sign up. Limited spots available.
From September – June, Arts and Culture Incubator events and performances at the Playhouse are often open to the public and span a wide range of topics and styles. Our group of Resident Artists is made up of local theatre-makers. The Incubator Partners are small, non-profit cultural organizations based in our community.
Among the more than 80 world premieres produced since the Playhouse’s founding in 1960 are plays that have been commissioned. Since 2006, our mission to develop new stories and contribute to the American theatre canon has expanded thanks to the Jerome Fey Endowment for New Plays. Additionally, the Playhouse invites nationally recognized playwrights the opportunity to workshop or present a staged reading of a work in progress.
Theatres and special event spaces in the Playhouse are available to rent for a variety of performances, receptions, and meetings.
The content of these presentations represents the views and opinions of the partner organization or artist and does not necessarily represent the views and opinions of Playhouse in the Park.
