This workshop will focus on The WHERE of the scene. An element that often gets taken for granted in scenework. Let's take time to organically build locations from the floor up. In taking our time, what information do we learn about the WHO & the WHY? Often an expected call is made by the improvisor, "Where are we?" An answer is heard from an audience member, "A Pet Shop," "A Gazebo," "An Elevator." Then a scene is played... BUT what if the...

You came up with a great character and are “Yes, and-ing” like crazy, so how come your scene doesn’t seem to be moving? Maybe because you’re not.

Pain, joy, anger, sadness, excitement: those feelings and emotions often occur when we do Improv. However, more often than not they are underperformed. We get the idea, the icing on the cake, but we don't take the time to enjoy the depth and repercussions of these emotions. Starting with overacting and over reacting, you will break your self-imposed barriers and be able to explore emotions and reactions and find out just how far you can go and how...

Agreement is at the heart of improv. If you and your scene partner aren’t able to agree with each other and build something together – to “Yes, and…,” if you will – your scene will stay at 0. In this workshop you’ll have the opportunity to practice multiple approaches for practicing agreement and supporting the process of discovery and creation.

Based on the...

Improvisation has been for centuries a theatre created by actors for actors. Modern day Improvisation began as a playful method of training actors through the creation of story and the actors’ imagination. Let’s get back to the fun of exploring the actors craft for performance. Let's rediscover the playfulness within the play. Focusing on the tools necessary for performance (character, emotional and physical truth), actors will explore...
Learn to bring a bit of reality to our scenes. Stop improvising like an improvisor and start acting like a real person on stage! Our real life interactions and discoveries are so much more entertaining than the contrived inventions we make up on stage.
Have you thought about how to play your status in your improvisational scenework? Have you thought how it is to change your status once the scene is up and running? In improvisational theater, “status” refers to the power difference in the relationship between two (or more) characters. In this class we will work on your character’s status and how you can change through body language, actions, and manner of speaking to your fellow actors.
It’s a new year so let’s re-energize and set goals. In this workshop, we’ll do some exercises to stretch and work out our improv muscles and allot time for scene work targeted toward common improv goals.
