Technique Theme: Improvisational Comedy
GOT FUNNY? Good! This class encourages all things made up, outlandish and silly. The class will focus on short form theatre games and scene work in the style of “Whose Line Is It Anyway?” Be creative…think on the spot…see the world in a completely unique way. Spontaneous play and ensemble work drive this course. The Santa Cruz community is rife with Improv troupes - and this is where they get their start! This class requires a minimum of 6 participants to run - so tell your friends to come out and PLAY!
