This is our introductory course into the wonderful world of improvisation! We will play a whole series of fun games that were designed specifically to install in you the basic principles of improvisation. We will work on failing good naturedly; the benefits of saying 'yes, and'; letting our partners shine; listening with intent and the trust and connection that makes wonderful scenework seem both brilliant and effortless.
This course is perfect for those who are intrigued by improvisational theatre and want to try it out for themselves, but also for those who have no interest in treading the stage boards. If you want to increase your confidence and self-awareness, your communication and listening skills, if you want to reframe your relationship with failure and take more risks, to explore the boundless possibilities of your imagination and discover new things about yourself, then this course is for you! No previous theatre experience is necessary, just an open mind and a willingness to get out of your comfort zone.
