Intro to Improv: Presence & Spontaneity
ImprovWorks Berlin, Rudolfstr. 14, Berlin, DESundays, 13:00-15:30, May 10-June 28
Class Show: Sunday July 5
Prerequisites: none!ImprovWorks Berlin is excited to announce our next round of improv comedy courses! We truly believe that everyone can become confident and funny on stage.
Over 8 weekly classes, we explore the principles of comedic improvisation primarily through short-form games. Together, we create a conscious, supportive space where we focus on becoming good listeners, making spontaneous choices, and working together as a team. We’ll empower each other with the “Freedom to Fail,” thereby unleashing our inner creativity. The concepts of presence, agreement, trust, commitment and support are fostered through large and small group exercises.
We’ll also have a ton of fun and make new friends! In the end-of-class show, you’ll get to show off all you’ve learned to an invited audience of family and friends.
Sundays, 13:00-15:30, May 10-June 28
