Solo Improv in a Group Setting (+Showcase) with Andel Sudik – 28th March

Full day workshop + Showcase at Playground After Hours Improv Night

Overview

Improvising solo can be exciting, terrifying and an incredible exploration of who we are as an improviser. And everything’s more fun in a group! Using the energy of an ensemble we will try on different solo styles and focus in on what we love about improv, how we want to play and what makes each us special. Whether you’re super comfortable on your own or find the idea scary we’ll create a fun environment to challenge yourself, delight each other and playaaay. All the while reminding ourselves when we’re improvising we’re never really alone.
