The Equity Wellness Committee are hosting a workshop that will be focused on the stress of the professional performer. Adjusting to the slings, arrows, joys, down times and constant challenges that are all part of the performer’s working life can be stressful. This workshop will explore the nuts and bolts of adjusting to being a professional performer, while also providing practical strategies for facing times of stress in helpful ways. The workshop will be participatory and informative, designed especially for performers who might be new to the industry, with time to socialize and debrief after the session has ended. The Wellness Committee co-chair Sarah Borg, who is a registered psychologist, will facilitate the session.
