Writing can be daunting - staring down a bright white blank screen. Improv can help you jumpstart that process, and let your mind make connections without the normal pressure of immediately putting it on a page.
This workshop will focus on how to generate material from your improvisation The Second City way — from suggestion to scene, through premise or character, this workshop will show you how to take your work to the next level.
