Scene Study
Trust yourself. Trust your scene partner. Let the game happen to you... This workshop will focus on supporting and respecting reality in your scenework. Improv cannot work unless the actors invest their scenes with reality. Conversely, once the actors are confident in themselves and each other to respect reality, improv becomes much simpler and joyful.
Prerequisite: Successful completion of Improv 401 (You do not have to be approved for Advanced Study/501 courses).
