One-day improv theatre workshop in English held in Budapest instructed by Abel Farkas. No acting experience is required. The event is organised by Flow Theatre. The workshop is from 9:45-17:00 (with a lunchbreak in the middle) Early Bird discount until the 31st of March. Registration is required to participate, and the class is limited to 14 participants. Please register using the link below: https://shop.flowszinhaz.hu/one-day-improv-theatre-workshop-with-abel-3/ Everybody has the ability to improvise. We do it in our everyday life. In theatre, others are watching us, and we feel we are required to perform well. This creates frustration within us and makes it difficult to act naturally. In improv, another obstacle is that we have no idea what our partner(s) will do and how we can create the connection between us. This uncertainty creates further frustration. During the workshops, we practice principles and methods which help us overcome and master these problems. The application of these methods go beyond theatre and could be useful in many areas of life, such as relationships, teamwork and communication. Instructor: Ábel Farkas, a reserach mathematician, magician and improv instructor. He has spent more than 10 years practicing improv theatre and studied it on three continents in English and Hungarian. Venue: Jurányi Produkciós Közösségi Inkubátorház, building A, at the end of the corridor on the 3rd floor (3. szint), the door on the left; the classroom of the Central European Irish Dance Academy (in Hungarian: Közép-Európai Ír Tánc Akadémia). ! Street shoes are not allowed in the rehearsal room. Instead, you may bring indoor shoes, slippers, socks or be barefoot. Comfortable clothes are recommended. Schedule: 9:45-13:00 workshop 13:00-13:50 lunch break 13:50-17:00 workshop After the workshop, we usually sit in the bar of Juranyi for a few drinks. All are very welcome! Price: Early Bird 16 500 HUF/person (if registered by 21st January) Normal 19 800 HUF/person The event is intended for adults, so we are only accepting registrations from adults.

Get to know others and discover, reinforce & improve yourself through this psychological community game! **"Identity**" is a psychological self-improvement game that lets participants have a glimpse into themselves and each other from different aspects of life and providing opportunity to share relevant experiences and thoughts. You'll get a random simple task with every card you draw such as: **"Most folks are as happy as they make up their minds to be.**" -> How could you use this insight? What does it say to you? How does it bring you forward? "**When did you last have me-time?** What did you do? What things do you usually do for your own joy?" "**Every ending opens up a new gate.**" -> Recall at least 2 painful stations in your life when something important for you ended! What good things could begin thanks to these endings? Substantial short talks in a respectful, non-judgemental (really: judgements, *even advices* are forbidden by the rules!) environment, while comfortably having a drink. Let others surprise you positively, learn about them, reflect on yourself internally and improve your personal life thanks to select short tasks that aim to bring you forward! **The game will be held in english!** The game only exists in hungarian version, so for instant translation of the cards, **Google Lens is recommended on your phone**! The event will be held in the "Másik Szoba" Café and Bar (part of the Élesztőház): https://elesztohaz.hu/reszeink/masikszoba/

Egy tinifiú hipp-hopp uralkodó lesz tündérországban? Ennyitől még lehetne egy gyerekkönyv is akár. De ettől a könyvtől nem fog egy gyerek sem Halloween-kor koboldnak öltözni, mert nem a pózok és a grandiózus csaták hangsúlyosak benne. Hősünk a helyét keresi, és egészen üdítő egy gyerek idealizmusával látni a politikai helyezkedéseken túl azt az ambíciót, hogy ő egy jó császár szeretne lenni. Zsáner irodalmon belül ez egy szokatlanul lassúkás és elgondolkodós könyv, de javaslom a végén található jegyzék tanulmányozását, mert fantasyhez illően minden rang és megszólítás helyett újított az író, hogy megalkossa a császári udvar hivatalos nyelvezetét. Remélem, hogy nektek is tetszeni fog, és beszélgetünk egy jót!

Egynapos impró színházi workshop Farkas Ábel vezetesével, a Flow Színház szervezésében. Semmilyen előképzettség vagy színházi ismeret nem szükséges. A workshop 9:45-től, 17:00-ig tart (közepén ebédszünettel). Early bird jelentkezés Március 31-ig. A részvétel regisztrációhoz kötött. A workshop maximum kapacitása 14 fő. Jelentkezés az alábbi linken: https://shop.flowszinhaz.hu/egynapos-impro-szinhazi-workshop-3/ Mindenkiben megvan a képesség az improvizálásra, hiszen minden nap ezt tesszük. A színjátszásban egy lényeges nehezítő körülmény, hogy mások néznek minket, és úgy érezzük, elvárják, hogy alakítsunk valamit. Ez sok feszültséget szül bennünk, és megnehezíti, hogy természetesen viselkedjünk. Az impróban egy másik jelentős nehézség, hogy fogalmunk sincs, mit fog a társunk (társaink) csinálni, és ahhoz hogy kapcsolódjunk. Ez a bizonytalanség további frusztrációt kelt. A tréning során olyan irányelveket, technikákat gyakorlunk, melyek segítenek, hogy a fent említett nehézségeken úrrá legyünk. Ezen módszerek alkalmazása túlmutat a színjátszáson, és az élet más területein is hasznos, mint például a társas együttélés, csapatmunka és kommunikáció. Tréner: Farkas Ábel matematikus, bűvész és impró tréner. Több mint 10 éve foglalkozik impró szinhazzal, három kontinensen tanulta és gyakorolta angol és magyar nyelven. A Flow Szinház vezetője. Helyszín: Jurányi Produkciós Közösségi Inkubátorház, A epület 3. emelet (3. szint) folyosó végén balra, Közép-Európai Ír Tánc Akadémia terme ! A próbaterembe utcai cipővel nem szabad belépni, helyette váltócipőben, papucsban, zokniban vagy mezítláb lehet. Ezenkívül kényelmes ruha javasolt. Időbeosztás: 9:45-13:00 Tréning 13:00-13:50 Ebédszünet 13:50-17:00 Tréning A workshop után be szoktunk ülni közösen a Jurányi bárjába A workshop díja: Early bird 16 500 Forint/fő (Március 31-ig regisztrálva) Normál 19 800 Forint/fő Az eseményt felnőttek számára tervezzük, ezért csak felnőttek jelentkezését várjuk. Késés és a csoportmunkát hátráltató vagy zavaró viselkedés esetén a részvételt megtagadhatjuk. Ennek elbírálása a tréner szabad belátására van bízva. Ilyen helyzetben részvételi díjat nem áll módunkban visszatéríteni. Regisztráció után a részvételi díj nem visszatéríthető. Ha a résztvevő nem tud részt venni, a részvételi díjat nem áll módunkban visszatéríteni. Ilyen esetben a részvétel átruházható más személyre.
