Improv Theatre Workshop - for Beginners and Improvers @ the LAB
Improv Theatre Workshop - for Beginners and Improvers @ the LAB
Join this Improv workshop for an afternoon filled with fun! You don't need any acting/stage experience to join us. It is meant for beginners and improvers. **What we will do:** * Group exercises to warm up and feel safe playing * Play improvised scenes Each person has their own way of improvising, of playing characters, that are fun for an audience to watch and fun to play.

The goal of our workshops is to unlock that part of you by providing a safe environment and the tools to improvise. **About the venue:** We are meeting at The LAB, studio 1. NOTE: We ask a fee of 10€ per person to help pay for the room/costs of the asc group. Please pay the organizer after the event (cash, revolut or PayPal).

Movement & Choreography Workshop for Beginners
Movement & Choreography Workshop for Beginners
Let’s enhance our curiosity and creativity in ourselves and others through Movement. In this event we will have easy exercises and games prepared for us to associate on life in a playful and fun way, and create choreographies with music. An Example of an Exercise: In small groups, we visualise a word with a 5 second gesture, followed by another person, who will associate on that gesture, and create their own. With music, the rhythm can influence the size, intensity and speed of your motion. The other exercises will be a surprise. We will explore ways to express emotions, thoughts, images and experiences, by creating a safe environment without judgement. Anyone is welcome to attend and no dance experience is required. **Location:** We are meeting at Studio 1 of The LAB. **Fees:** We ask a fee of €10 per person to help out with the costs of the asc group. Please pay the organizer at the event. We accept cash or revolut/paypal. Find out more about us/Support our Group here: [https://activesocialconnections.com/](https://activesocialconnections.com/)

Let’s play… Never Stop Blowing Up! / Marvel Universe RPG
Join us every Sunday and tell a story as a group by playing a beginner-friendly roleplaying game. Every week we have 2-3 different games. All materials provided and rules are explained at the start of each game, you just need to bring your imagination. 🎭 **This week's facilitators:** * 📼 **Flo** with *[Never Stop Blowing Up!](https://store.dropout.tv/products/never-stop-blowing-up-game-system)*[ ](https://store.dropout.tv/products/never-stop-blowing-up-game-system) \- a rules\-light\, dice\-exploding game as seen on Dimension 20\. You are Action Heroes of the modern world banding together to fight the good fight and stop the dastardly villain in the most ludicrous and dramatic way possible\! Expect heists\, chase scenes\, stealth\, hand to hand combat\, hacking\, gun fighting and explosions probably all happening at the same time\! * 🦸 **Dave** *[Marvel Universe RPG](https://www.marvel.com/rpg)* \- a fast\, diceless system where actions are resolved by spending energy\. The X\-Men are busy fighting the Brotherhood\. The Avengers and the Fantastic Four are stopping yet another alien invasion\. Spidey and Daredevil are dealing with the worst crime bosses in the city\. So when a dangerous new drug called R starts spreading among human and mutant kids\, the Mayor of New York calls your team: “Track the source\. Cut the supply\. Find who’s behind it before the drug spreads further\.” Your team includes heroes who can fly\, teleport across the city\, bend steel with their bare hands\, and blast devastating energy\, but whoever is behind the R\-drug is not just another street gang\. You will have to investigate the streets and take down anyone standing in your way\, without leveling half of New York and its honest citizens in the process\. *** Feel free to ask the organisers any questions you have (here or on our [Discord server](https://tinyurl.com/indie-rpgs-dublin)).
Music Makers Live performance session.
Music Makers Live performance session.
This is one of our performance sessions. Microphones, PA, Speakers and lights on a stage setting. These sessions give members the opportunity to perform in public, so you can bring along your friends and family to see you perform. There are limited performance spaces so the first 20 performers will get a slot on the night. Please note this is only open to members that attend our weekly Meetup sessions on a regular enough basis. Each performer should have 2 songs and an additional back up just in case we are running ahead of time on the night. I suggest you update the comment field with your song list so others can avoid duplication. We booked the room in The Halfway House, Ashtown, Navan Road. Admission is €7.00 pay at the door (Revolut accepted) on the night. Finger food will be served. The venue is serviced by bus and the Maynooth train.

[FREE] Mystery Walk (Luas + Walk) - Southside Route 2
IMPORTANT: Please have a Leap card with money on it before you join us for this walk as we are travelling by Luas after we meet. Hello! 🙂 Meeting place: Pret A Manger - beside Harcourt Luas. Meeting time: 10am onwards. Departure time: 1030am sharp. I'll tell you the plan when you arrive. Basically, we take a Luas together south from Harcourt and we walk. The route is approximately 10km. There will be time for coffee/cake, toilets etc. We start and finish at a Luas stop on the Green Line. If you live in south Dublin along the Green Line, you are welcome to message me the day before this event to ask me which Luas stop we are going to and you can join us there instead of having to come to the cory centre. Though you are welcome to join the group at the start at Pret beside Harcourt if you prefer. Note / Disclaimer: Attending this event and every event in this group is entirely in every possible way at your own risk. Any questions, message me. PLEASE don't cancel on the day or forget to join us. It's important you join us if you sign up as it means people on the waiting list lose out if you don't take your place. If you're new, please don't be shy, message me if you have any questions, and you can either join us inside Pret or join us as we wait the last 5 minutes outside Pret before going to the Luas. Thanks! Alan

Shut Up & Write! Kingsdale Shopping Center
Shut Up & Write! Kingsdale Shopping Center
Greetings writers! Come down and join your fellow wordsmiths for one hour of uninterrupted writing time in the upper level of the Market District Supermarket in Upper Arlington. The main entrance of the shopping center opens onto stairs/elevator leading up to the 2nd floor cafe section where we will have a table displaying a sign with the Shut Up & Write logo. Writing is largely a solitary craft. Practicing with others in a community setting may be the thing you need to fire your own routine. We’ll meet on Wednesday evenings, starting the clock at 6:30, following a brief period of introductions. This is solid writing time and all inclusive. Any project is acceptable, be it fiction, non -fiction, work or homework assignment. All is welcome and will remain private to you. The market boasts a Starbucks, a full service bar and various affordable food options. Parking is plentiful, free Wifi is provided as well as outlets for charging your devices, though they are somewhat limited, so plan accordingly. Show up as early as you like, or stay late. This group tends to socialize some, both before and after the alloted time, but this is not mandatory to you. Feel free to come and go as you please and late arrivals are welcome. The cafe may be noisy on occasion so headphones/ earbuds are reccommended as you see fit. Please try to RSVP if possible so that we may grab enough seats for all—the venue can be busy at times. Feel free to message me privately wth any questions and/ or concerns you may have. Happy writing!
Speak Easy (Storytelling)
Speak Easy (Storytelling)
The topic for March is "Our Bodies, Ourselves" Speak Easy: true stories, told live. The idea is simple: an audience, an open microphone, and great stories. Hilarious, gripping, poignant- it's up to you. Audiences are invited to come to listen or come to tell as folks from all corners of Columbus offer their stories live on stage! Held at Wild Goose Creative's warm, intimate space, this night of tales occurs on the 3rd Thursday of every month. Doors open at 6:30 pm, show starts at 7:00 pm. Please arrive early if you want to tell, as we generally only have room for a limited number of tellers, and the sign-up sheet has a tendency to fill up fast. Formed around the idea that people need stories--they're what hold and draw us together--SpeakEasy celebrates the strangeness and commonness of being human. And in a world of smartphones, Facebook, Twitter, and more . . . it gives people a real, breathing, in-person way to connect. The night is geared for true stories of all kinds, taking the best tales told around kitchen tables, in darkened pubs, on the street corner, and at late-night parties and giving them an audience. Speak Easy is also a great outlet for performers, writers, and artists looking to share their favorite stories and perfect their skills. We strongly encourage tellers to please tell the story rather than read it so we keep within the spirit of good storytelling and stay engaged with the audience. All are welcome. Hang around after the show for a drink and build community!
