I love you, Baby.
Improv scenes are more captivating to watch when involving two crucial elements: emotions and intimacy. Feeling emotions in improv enables audiences to enjoy a deeper level of performance and comedy. Theatre is all about the relationship between the characters on stage. Still, we see very few intimate relationships being played in improv. Don't we know how to? Are we scared? Afraid maybe of crossing our scene partner's boundaries? Somehow, improvisers from all around the world are getting shy when it comes to real emotions, truthful connections to your partner and a real commitment to your character's feelings. Because it's a little bit scary. And risky. But it’s such a lot of fun!
In this workshop, we will dive deep into our (stage) emotions and learn different techniques to get emotional on stage. We'll find out how to play truthful scenes about love, attraction and relationships. We'll work on trust and truly connecting with your scene partner. By respecting and trusting each other, you'll learn how to work with the tension between you and your stage partner. Because playing emotionally alone is even scarier.
From good old Stanislavsky’s emotional memory to a psychology-based technique called emo-streaming, we will learn tools to perform more emotionally. We will work on our connection with our stage partner. Because playing emotionally alone is even scarier.
