Creative people in film, theater and the visual arts know this: Success is rarely straightforward, and lean periods are part of it. But how do you remain capable of acting when projects fall through, orders fail to materialize or doubts arise?
Director & Festival Director Tom Bohn and actress & coach Beate Maes share their decades of experience from an industry that knows hardship like no other – and show you how to cultivate inner strength, clarity and courage.
An intensive one-day workshop for anyone who not only wants to protect their creativity, but take it to a new level.
