2ND CITY ACTOR IN TOWN TO TEACH IMPROVISATION!!
Actors with Moxie presents:
Professional series workshops
Improvisation for Intermediate & Advanced Actors
October 29, 2011 with Megan Hovde Wilkins from the Second City in Chicago
WHEN: Saturday, October 29th, 2011 1pm-3:30 or 4pm-6
WHERE: The Fish tank 1715 Wyandotte, in the Crossroads, Kansas City, MO 64108
COST: $40 or $45
Intermediate Improv for Actors 2 hours 4-6pm $40
For the day player. Had a little improv in your life? Want some more? We will build on concepts and hone skills in this course. Doing is the best path towards learning, so we will do. In this session we will focus on character work- developing and maintaining interesting choices and creating sustaining believable characters. Solid character work is one of the most important elements of both long and short form improv.
Impressionism Advanced Improv for Actors 3.5 hours 1-3:30pm $45
What impression do you make as an improviser? We will run a course of exercises, after which I will meet with everyone and explain what I see and notice when watching you improvise. As a part of the conservatory faculty at Second City- I evaluate many, many improv auditions, and I can tell you what I would think if I saw you audition, or if I saw you in a show. I will be honest in my assessment, from the perspective of a director, teacher and fellow improviser. We will then do some more improvising, letting you digest and apply any thoughts or challenges I may have for you. Sometimes an outside eye can inspire you in a new way, let’s see…
*Experience level: Must feel comfortable improvising.
**Space is limited**
