Movement & Theatre improv drop in lesson with Suzan Lemont

Join us for a fun session of improv theatre in English! A great opportunity to meet new people in Utrecht and learn something new with Improv Utrecht. Everyone can partcipate, you don't need any experience in theatre nor fluency in English.

Special topic: Movement & Theatre improv
Movement improvisation is a wonderful basis for all other forms of improvisation. Well before we had language we had movement; there is so much that can be expressed without words. Instead of the games that are used in theater improv, we work mostly with “scores”, or a kind of blueprint to what will happen in a space of time. A kind of a structure. We will do exercises that originate from Viewpoints, physical theater, and other forms of improvisation (including a bit of Contact Improv at times), and moving in/with/through the space, non verbal contact and how we can communicate through our bodies.

Anyone can participate, you don’t need any experience in movement or theater nor complete fluency in English. This workshop is without shoes: bring non-slippery socks

In this session you will:

• Meet fellow international and local players.
• Learn the basics of improvisation, a 21st-century skill that is useful in many aspects of life
• get out of your head
• enjoy failing
• Play funny and moving theatre games.
• Laugh a lot, while surprising yourself and others.

Doors open: 19:50-20:00, come in with the others (SIDE entrance, at the Troelstralaan). After 20:01 the door may be closed, but you may find a participant who knows the door code.

Workshop: 20:00-22:00
Every Friday except in school holidays
Afterwards we have drinks at pub O'Leary's together
