BCAF 2016 Workshop: That's What She Said with Chrissie Gruebel (Magnet Theater)

Workshop description:

This one’s for the ladies! In this workshop, we’ll celebrate what it means to gender identify as a woman in the comedy scene and work on bringing our unique voices and experiences into our improv. With support and trust, we’ll empower ourselves to do the scenes we like, play characters we can relate to, and only be wives and girlfriends if we wanna be.
