A 7-day immersive residential workshop that uses theatre and comedy to help teenagers navigate everyday challenges with confidence, creativity, and a sense of humour; in a space that allows them to slow down, open up, and see things differently.
Set in the calm, natural surroundings of The Nest in Alibaug, this workshop creates room for reflection, expression, and connection. Through 14 sessions, participants will move from theatre games and exploratory discussions to discovering different styles of comedy, eventually creating and performing their own original pieces.
The workshop focuses on real, lived experiences—peer pressure, stress, identity—and uses humour and performance as a way to process and express them. The residential format allows participants to build trust, form meaningful connections, and engage more deeply with themselves and each other, culminating in a final performance for parents.
Conducted by Joy Fernandes (.to.all), a theatre practitioner with over 35 years of experience across stage, film, and training, and a visiting faculty at FTII, the mentorship blends performance skills with personal growth in a way that feels natural, engaging, and honest.
📍 Venue: The Nest, Alibaug
