I learned many new techniques and games. Your knowledge helped me as a seasoned professional to learn and have fun. Thank you. - Judy Nelson (theater director and international peace advocate - after the “Theater Artists Play” two-day workshop at the Philadelphia Fringe Festival, Sept 2018)
The Gregson Theater PROCESS engages all of the participants in the entire theater making process. Everyone involved in the workshop, full scale production or simple piece does everything needed to design it, write it and then perform it from beginning to end.
These workshops and residencies are for adults, teachers, professionals, beginners and children, for all people, students and participants with and without disabilities.
The process for all of our theater arts programs (workshops and residencies) begins with physical and vocal warm ups. Then mime, acting training, voice, scene writing, improvisation and other techniques are incorporated as needed.

My Disclaimer: I am not a therapist, but am a theater artist. I like to work with people who maybe in various stages of recovery, in transition or who are institutionalized. I don’t need to know why they are there or what they did to be there. I see everyone through the lens of a fellow artist and that is how we connect.
I give my students access to the creative form (in my case it is theater) and show them how to express themselves in this art form.
