We all know comedic improv shows like 'Whose Line is It Anyway.' Dramatic improv is the flipside. It's a lot of fun, but highlights relationships and character development. When students focus less on the funny and more on interacting with their scene partners, there's less pressure and allows them to have more fun collaborating with their on-stage scene partner. This class will teach the basics of 1-1 scenes, tapping into emotions, and bringing parts of themselves into the character. The final class will include a show or more interactive, less-pressure oriented showcase for family and friends.
