• Are you are struggling to find your way into your story?
• Are you lost in the middle of a narrative maze, overwhelmed, disorientated, and losing faith in your story and worse still, in yourself?
• Or are you struggling to elevate your story to where you know it could be?
• As an actor do you sometimes struggle to connect fully with your characters journey?

What if the key to unlock the solution to these creative dilemmas is not in the story but rather in you?

The retreat with focus on the creatives, the project, and the relationship between the two embodying three essential questions:

• Why this story?
• Why us?
• Why now?
