Narrative is a type of improv show in which the characters, the scenes and the locations are connected and tell the same story.
One of the most challenging things in improv is creating one long story on the spot and making it interesting, with exciting characters, tension and suspense, emotional and relatable.
In this course we will explore and work on the skills needed to feel comfortable enough to create a whole narrative on stage. We will experiment with different styles and ways of telling a story and we will work on basic techniques on how to keep track of our story.
Humans are creatures of story. It is a human communication and learning skill and eventually it always appears in our improv. Think of it as an untamed superpower! Let’s learn how to control it and use it at will!
