Sat. Apr 19th, 2025    
2:30 pm (CDT)-5:00 pm (CDT)
This class is designed for improvisers with a background in narrative improv who want to expand their skill set by diving into the mechanics of the Harold. Students will explore how the structure, game, and thematic connections of a Harold differ from traditional storytelling while exploring how their narrative instincts can enhance scene work and group mind. Through exercises focused on pattern recognition, heightening, and nonlinear scene progression, students will practice weaving multiple storylines that follow discovery and theme until they converge organically.
Intro to Puppetry

Whether you’re looking to enhance your existing improv skills, explore a completely new art form, or just have some good-ol’-fashioned fun, this workshop is for you! Explore the fundamentals of theatrical hand puppetry (and a little hand-and-rod puppetry, aka muppetry), from the rich history behind the craft to on-stage tips-and-tricks for technique and movement. Through playful exercises and guided scene work, you will step into the roles of both puppeteer and human scene partner, learning how to create compelling performances that include puppets. By the end of this workshop, you will be ready for some on-stage puppet shenanigans!
