We'll be exploring the art of improvisation.
What's that?

"Improv, short for improvisational theater, is a live performance in which the actors make up scenes, dialogue and characters on the spot (sometimes incorporating suggestions from the audience). It’s often comedic, though not always."

We'll start with some simple warmups and then we'll do some fun improv games.

Beginners welcome.

Improv Quote:

• If you do your best, you’ll get some form of stage fright. Be obvious. If you believe you’re good already, you don’t need to do extra stuff to impress us. Your best work comes when you’re absorbed; because then your ego is away.

Exploring Improv!

Steve says there is a request for MORE improv. I taught up until a year ago and am ready to jump back in.

I'll teach improv from the ground up;
crawl, walk, run. Can't fly, that takes special permits.

Wear your good socks. Shoes off let's you ground.

And if you're not careful, ya might have some fun...
