About this Event

Pretend You’re in a Musical
Musical Theatre Skills for Improvisers

Instructors: Aden Nepom & Eric Nepom (Portland, OR)


In musicals characters don't just spontaneously burst into song for no reason, they exist in a heightened universe where everything is BIGGER! People's facial expressions, their movement, the pacing of their words and emotion all work together to create whole worlds where needing to sing about something just makes perfect sense.

Focusing on cadence of speech, style of movement, and most importantly the thoughts and feelings that help you to successfully pull out the "Broadway" feel, Aden & Eric will guide your inner musical theater star to inspire characters, stage pictures and songs.

If you’ve struggled to make big musical theater moves that heighten your character and the world around you, then this workshop is for you!


Student Information

All Levels: This workshop is open to students with some improv performance experience.


Workshop Capacity

About the Instructor

Real life couple Aden Nepom and Eric Nepom have been improvising for over 65 years between the two of them. They have been playing together for roughly twelve years, and have only been married for ten blissful years. Recognized for outstanding skills in theatre, speech, communication and development, these two share a passion for committed character work, grounded platform building and that moment where one realizes that anything can happen in improv! Individually they’ve created programming, won awards and traveled the world as improv teachers, stage performers and educators. Together, they’ve taught and performed on stages from as close as 20 minutes from their house, to as far away as Tel Aviv. Their festival appearances include the Fertile Ground Festival in Portland, OR, the Out of Bounds Comedy Festival in Austin, TX, the Alaska State Improv Festival in Juneau, AK, the Seattle Festival of Improvised Theatre in Seattle, WA, New York Musical Improv Fest in NY, and Mount Olymprov Greek International Improv Festival in Athens, Greece, IMPROAmsterdam in Amsterdam Netherlands, and many more.
