"Intense and Truthful Scenes" with Peggy Green 📺🎬
“Acting is reacting” - Stella Adler.
In improv, you are not only actors or actresses but also the authors and directors of the scenes you play. What a blast! We use many skills, such as building the story, saying funny lines, exploring formats, etc.; sometimes, we give a lot of energy and attention to that and less to our characters' profiles and emotions.
In this workshop, you will work on going deeper into a scene where the pitch is given. You will explore the relationship and embody the characters’ personalities, diving into their emotions in drama and comedy moments. We will feed your improv toolbox as you play and naturally react as your character.
Note: The workshop is for improvisers and/or actors who have completed an introduction level.

Fareharbor - ImproNation course - Improv guest workshop + showcase "Clap-In" form with Michael ChurvenNeeds location
ImproNation invites Michael Churven, a teacher, performer, and director like no other from The Groundlings, Los Angeles!
He is visiting us again to teach a workshop on the 'Clap-In' form, a style of long-form improv that uses flexibility to spark creative impulses, freedom, and spontaneity. The improv players begin with a starter scene, and the form then sets in motion a cannon for comedic ideas that gathers momentum as the improv players build on ideas, create twists, and 'follow the fun'.
He will teach us over two days and end with a showcase. Here are the dates and times:
- 11th of May: workshop between 11:00 - 18:00 (1 hour lunch)
- 17th of May: workshop between 11:00 - 18:00 (1 hour lunch)
