Lincoln Park Improv

THIS IS A DRAFT

This group is open to anyone who would like to participate in or learn more about improvisation. No experience is necessary.

This group is dedicated to helping people of all experience levels learn about and practice improvisation in a safe creative space.

Regardless of worldview, gender, ethnicity, nationality, orientation, ability, experience level, etc. everyone is welcome to come out and try new improvised things!People of all experience levels are welcome!

Improvisation can be many different things:

•Improvisation as building confidence in your own ability to react to the unexpected,

•Improvisation as practice at “Thinking on your feet,”

•Improvisation as experience in work with other people towards a common goal,

•Improvisation as cultivating ones' ability to read immediate feedback and incorporate it into future choices.

Improv can also be very funny, hilarious, even, but it is first and foremost about being genuine.Genuine as the character(s) you are creating in a scene, genuine in your reactions to what is occurring in a scene, and genuine in all of our commitment to maintaining a safe, encouraging, creative, and open environment for learning AND play!

Join us to improve your ability to think on your feet, learn more about improvisation, let your fantastic weirdness come out to play, and/or just have fun while exploring new creative avenues and spaces!!!

Guests/spectators are welcome, and will be encouraged to offer suggestions to help create exciting and hilarious scenes!
