In this workshop you’ll learn to how to turn a fight into a fun point of view, use empathy to have a stronger connection with your scene partner, lose the fight temporarily to move the scene forward, and play the relationship out based on the initial dynamic or offer instead of trying to change the relationship.
In this 2.5hr workshop, we delve deep into the intricacies of scene work in improv and equip you with the tools to overcome common challenges that improvisers face. Through a combination of exercises and group discussions, you will gain valuable insights into the most common stumbling blocks encountered in scene work. Examples include: “getting stuck” in a scene, when the flow of ideas seems to come to a halt and leaving you unsure of what to do next, the feeling of not being on the same page as your scene partner, and the pressure that often accompanies the beginning of scenes.
The second level in our Narrative series will pick a specific style of storytelling (Noir, buddy cop, soap opera, after-school special, etc.) and spend six weeks giving you the tools and techniques to knock it out of the park.
