Sketch Writing Through Improv (Online)
Locations: Online
A masterclass in both improv and scene writing. Students will improvise scenes and use repetition to experiment with the structure of the scene they are crafting— exploring elements such as status, point of view, relationship, and setting as well as writing mechanics including fish out of water, center vs the eccentrics, and simple but impossible task. Written versions of the scenes will be brought back to class for notes as well as to inspire offshoot improvised scenes.
Fundamentals learned in this workshop can be brought with you to your improvisation, acting, and writing. Students will leave this workshop with several written scenes that will encourage more writing and may inspire something grander.
