About This Activity
Description
Improv will focus on theatre games and exercises using imagination and creativity. Students will create characters, stories, and scenes. This class is about finding your voice on stage, building characters, working as a team and getting over stage-fright. If you like Whose Line Is It Anyway, or have ever wanted to learn how to perform Improv, this is the class for you! Absolutely no experience necessary for this beginner Improv class. "But wait!", you say, "I'm not funny / clever / quick / an actor!" - perfect. Did we mention it will also be the most fun you've had all week?
