This workshop has started or is in the past.

Class Description: A simple and practical course in playing the "game of the scene." That includes: focusing on the "unusual thing" instead of plot. Other skills learned here: pulling premise from an opening, justifying, using emotions to heighten and all along still acting like a human being. Anyone with a year of long-form improv experience at any theater can take this course. LOCATION WILL BE EAST SIDE OF LOS ANGELES OR NORTH HOLLYWOOD — we’ll lock it down the week before class.
