About this Event
Let's explore using Improv to laugh and create (sometimes very short!) stories together.
The theme will be "it's easier to like each other": let's have the characters get along rather than trying to invent conflict.
Most importantly, we will discover fun approaches to making each other laugh! Even if you've never told a joke or stepped onto a stage. We welcome all levels from beginners to seasoned improvisers, and help you discover fun and playful games. We can (almost) guarantee that everyone will have a lot of fun!
Tickets are £10 or Pay What You Can - click the ticket button!
What is Improv? It's a set of skills that anyone can learn for creating in a supportive, collaborative fashion - no one person has to do all the work: nor should they!
You'll be amazed at how easily you'll build worlds together and make new friends.
Things to remember:
- You can do this - most of your daily life is unscripted!
- The whole drop-in is one team - no heckling - only support
- You don't have to ever do this in public
- You can ALWAYS opt out of any scene or activity or topic - we've got your back.
