Story and Style UnScripted Theatre - Intensiv
Dan is the founder of the critically acclaimed Impro Theatre in Los Angeles who perform full-length unscripted plays in the style of great writers like Jane Austen, Anton Chekhov and William Shakespeare. This class is about learning all the tools that Impro Theatre uses in creating narrative and genre improvisation. It’s fun and will help students get out of their own way to learn how to be in the moment and improvise in a more energized way. This class helps students to focus on taking care of the story of the scene and taking care of the people on stage with you. We will dive into how great writers can help improvisers increase their skills and improve the quality of their work.
