About this Event
Patterns help us collaborate. Spontaneous group acceptance/collaboration impresses an audience more than individual cleverness. Pattern work rewards an audience for paying attention and enforces the idea that the show was made especially for them. In our third level, we explore creating patterns and discovering games to propel your scenes forward. You'll get out of your head and into the show by focusing on your team and what they need.
Dates: The class runs Mondays starting 6/1/2026 and running for 8 weeks. Note that a week may be skipped due to holidays or the Coalition's Second Best Fest comedy festival.
A showcase will be scheduled as an additional opportunity on an evening during the week of August 2nd (or potentially the week of July 27th, pending class availability and holiday scheduling).
Instructor: Z Seliquini
Z Seliquini (they/he) is a company member at the Coalition Theater with over 7 years of theatrical experience. Throughout that time, they’ve studied dialect training, modern dance, and are currently continuing on their lifelong study of being a public nuisance. You can catch Z in Wolf Night, a house team at the Coalition, or as Zukini Lèsagna, an up-and-coming drag performer in the Richmond scene. He’s worked with Quill Theater, the National Theater, and now…with you? Come take this crazy class and see what kind of characters live within you!
Prerequisites: Improv 101 and 201, or equivalent classes at a comparable institution. Email [email protected] with questions.
