Relationship Dynamics
WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION:
Looking at your scene partner and deciding right away that they’re the most important person in your character’s life is a great place to start from when thinking about "relationship" in improvisation. The challenge is to avoid talking about what you’re doing and instead focus on how you’re feeling to sustain a strong relationship onstage. This workshop will help you make quick, specific choices about how well you know the other person so the audience understands why these characters are together. We’ll explore different “types” of relationships we've often seen in improv and discover new options to explore these characters in a dynamic way.
This class is limited to 16 students. Location of class will be at Leela Improv Training Center in the SF Chronicle Building - 901 Mission Street (@5th), Suite 307, SF).
***The class is located only one block from the Powell MUNI/BART station.***
Class Instructions: Meet inside the Chronicle Building at the 901 Mission entrance at 9:50am. There will be someone to greet you and direct you upstairs to the classroom.
