Improvise from the Heart ~ Respond from the Gut
Instructors: April Green & Mathew Schreiber

The focus of this workshop is scene work and acting skills. We will blend the richness of theater with the spontaneity of improv. This is designed for folks already familiar with the basics of theater improv. We will work on developing character vulnerablity and honing the skills needed to weave strong scenes into compelling stories.

Topics include: relationship and connection, staying in the moment and being affected, using silence, playing your objective, organic scene transitions and edits, and clarifying the protagonist.

Limited to 8 students. Please email improv@loon.com

"April Green and Mathew Schreiber immerse their students in one of the purest forms of theatrical experience: Long-Form Improv. They teach you how to act from your gut within the delicate constraints of spontaneous story. Any storyteller, actor, director, writer, comedian -- can grow with this technique."    - Paul Baird

"These workshops are excellent in their own right, and also as a complement to other classes taught in Santa Cruz. They are challenging, exciting, surprising, deepening -- and fun!"   - Meg Sandow
