What's On

This seven-week course explores the key skills and techniques used in improvising narrative-based performances. Using exercises and techniques inspired by the work of Keith Johnstone and Patti Stiles, students will dive into constructing story arcs and engage in supportive ensemble work, as well as discovering a number of tools to shake up and inspire their scenework skills.

Scenes are the building blocks of improvised theatre, but there are as many different ways to play a scene as there are improvisers. From emotionally-focused play, to creating a narrative flow of cause and effect, deftly weaving themes and concepts together, or just finding something funny to do again (but bigger), how you approach a scene helps to define how it plays out.
