Get In The Game Improv Workshop With Dana Quercioli
02/24/2021
7-9pm EST
$30
8 person cap
In this workshop, we’ll focus on recognizing and exploring initiations and patterns that lead to finding the game in the scene, and then playing it like a pro. Finding the game organically, and using the initiations already established so that you can discover, not invent, your way through a great scene and have the most fun doing it. With exercises designed to heighten your awareness, curiosity, and playfulness, we’ll spend our time using the abilities you already have to make your scene work, group work, and game work way more fun, and a lot less nerve wracking.
Experience Level: Should have a basic grasp of scene work, so level two/b and up.
