Improvisation for Teens: A One-Day Workshop (Ages 13-19)
Saturday, November 17 | 10am-4pm
Let us immerse ourselves in the world of moment-to-moment, spontaneous, creative and fresh expression! Drawing from Action Theater™ and other improvisation forms, this day long workshop will develop artistic range, deconstruct habitual patterns and launch us into the realms of imaginal terrains and possibilities. Emphasis will be on co-creating a safe and fun environment which fosters exploration. No experience is necessary in the performing arts. Come as you are…ready to practice and play (and perhaps hurl a few Shakesperian insults!)
$75. Bring a lunch.
