We are so excited to add Rich to our wonderful pool of coaches worldwide! This is a 4 week course, meeting once a week to work on improv. In the U.S. improv is just as important as scene work. If you can improv your way through a scene you can improv your way through any situation. Acting is at its best when we’re 1. Truly in the moment, 2.Connected to our scene partners, and 3. Responding to what’s happening right now. Improv sharpens these skills more than anything else. Take your acting to the next level with improv. And it’ll be a whole lotta fun! Breakdown: Some of the concepts we’ll touch on: -Daring to Fail -Supporting Each Other/Making Each Other Look Good -Presence -Connection -Release of control (or the illusion of it) -Slowing down -Reacting rather than Deciding -Wielding emotions -Allowing the comedy to emerge -Using silence -Embracing the silly -Having a blast!
