This week’s drop-in: Acting on an Improv Stage
Brought to you by Sophie.
We focus heavily on teamwork, agreement and yes-anding the hell out of everything. We don’t spend as much time on how we inhabit the stage, and what it means to be acting as well as improvising.
This week, we’ll be using theatre acting techniques in improv! Scenes are a lot more engaging when audiences forget they’re watching a show and start to believe in the emotion, giving the comedy bits a lot more depth. We’ll swap out your noggin for an actor’s head, to give your characters that extra believability.
Who dat Sophie?
