Workshop: Arts Intertwined with Storytelling, with Anto Chan
Workshop: Arts Intertwined with Storytelling, with Anto Chan
April 11 @ 2:00 pm – 5:00 pm EDT
In this workshop, InnerGenerational’s Anto Chan, will support you in bringing more of your true self to the stage by weaving together your unique talents with the art of storytelling. Participants will explore how different performance styles such as spoken word, music stand up comedy, movement, or other creative expressions, can intertwine with personal narrative to create compelling and authentic stage pieces.
Through thoughtful prompts and caring feedback, Anto will guide you in either integrating storytelling into your existing performance practice, or if you’re primarily a storyteller, taking the creative risk of bringing other artistic talents into your set.
With 19 years of experience in the performance arts, including stand-up comedy, spoken word poetry, storytelling, and emceeing, Anto Chan brings a multidisciplinary perspective to the stage. He is also the creator of the collective InnerGenerational, which supports Asian artists in sharing their talents including music, theatre, poetry and rap with full stories, in ways that are both entertaining and emotionally vulnerable.
As a practicing expressive arts therapist, Anto also holds compassionate space for artists who may feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from their creative curiosity. In this workshop, he brings that supportive approach to help participants take risks, discover new possibilities, and begin building a performance set they are truly proud of.
