It's True! So, What Else? with Matt Candio

A Two and a Half Hour Long Improv Comedy Workshop
About this Event

About the Workshop: Now that we've established a clear "Base Reality," what sticks out? In this follow-up workshop, we'll examine the "Game of the Scene." By playing the context created together, the fun, the interesting, and the unusual become more apparent. We’ll work on active listening and paying attention to subtle details that reveal what’s funny about the interaction. You'll learn how to highlight what is unusual, unpack it, and play it by making bold choices that push the scene further, while staying true to its logic.

When and Where: This workshop runs from 3:30pm to 6pm on Saturday 2/1. The event is at 16 S Prince St Lancaster, in the Lancaster Improv Players' Theater.
