We’ll introduce you to the basic terminology & skills of improvisation, including: – impulse work: not over-thinking, planning ahead or editing yourself; making choices without hesitation – listening to and connecting with other people onstage – making and accepting offers, finding agreement – stagecraft (from being seen & heard… to creating dynamic stage pictures) – basic scene structure: setting, characters/relationships, action, conclusion/resolution – platforms (creating the foundations of scenes and making confident scenic initiations) – improvised character & environment creation
Who it’s for: people with absolutely no prior improv or performance experience – folks wanting to try something fun, build their confidence, think creatively and improve their spontaneity & communication skills / improvisers who want to return to the basics to refresh their game
