A Subversive's Guide to Improv: Masterclass with
Whether you’re a seasoned improviser, an improv “newbie,” or an actor who’s shied away from improvisation because you felt you weren’t clever enough, A Subversive’s Masterclass is for you.
The challenge for most improvisers is trying to stick to “the rules” and believing “Yes, and” is the magic formula for a successful scene. Characters meander and never find their footing. In an instant, you travel from a state of fluidity to a mess of frustration and ask yourself, “How did I go wrong?” or “Now what?” A Subversive’s Masterclass highlights methods and exercises in his best-seller, .
This workshop will teach you to connect to your partner and the scene without worrying about the rules and responding with a “yes, and” after every line.
This full-day intensive includes:
Finding Focus - What are you focused on when you begin a scene? What great offers are you missing because you’re building a story instead of a relationship? Learn how paying attention to your heart and breath leads to strong scenes and surprising dynamics.
PinpointingPoint of View - It’s the bedrock of every relationship. You state your point of view, and your partner says theirs. Sounds easy, right? But how often are scenes derailed because the actors don’t hold onto their points of view or mindlessly add unnecessary details that throw the scene off course? Recognizing, maintaining, and evolving a point of view creates confident and exciting scenes.
Exploring Spatial Relationship - If you don’t move, neither do your scenes. The dynamics between you and your partner are defined not just by your dialogue but by where you are on stage when you’re speaking. Learn how physical distance conveys strong points of view, status, and dramatic relationships.
A Subversive’s Masterclass builds on Razowsky’s methodology of mindfulness, emotional awareness, kinesthetic responses, and truthfulness to create profound and surprising scenes. Prepare to be changed.
