6:30 PM - 9:00 PM. An improviser should be really, REALLY good at having fun. Your sense of play is that little spark of inspiration that comes when you find something funny, exciting, or magical. Together we’ll find ways to catch that spark and let it light up the whole room. This workshop will use tools of clown, physicality, and a variety of absurd games to sharpen your sense of play and turn you into a vessel for fun. No experience required.
