How can improv help us with our acting? Whether it is character development, owning your space on stage, or pivoting when a scripted scene goes off the rails. This workshop will address some fundamental applications of improv for the stage actor. Participants will have an opportunity to develop skills on applying improv to bring depth to your performances, and flawlessly save a scene when it goes into unscripted territory. This workshop has a minimum of 6 participants and maximum of 20, and registrants should come in comfortable clothing and be prepared to move and act.
No prior improv experience required. Some acting experience recommended, but not required.
