About this Event
Challenge yourself as an improviser and an actor in this class. We'll use real situations to delve into what happens when life is complicated and people get real. It’ll be messy, emotional and vulnerable. This class will force you to listen to your heart and your tummy.
We’ll focus on heightening both the scene and your reaction through elevating the intensity with the assistance of the emotional wheel. In the end, we’ll search for the WHY in your scene to help sustain the authenticity of the performance and sharpen your senses.
