We’ll explore the vast expanse of possibilities we face when we do Open Scenework. This means short

scenes (no games!) from simple suggestions (or no suggestions!). Success in Open Scenework requires us to use all our improv skills! It is both endlessly satisfying and endlessly challenging!


Here are some things we’ll work on:

- Scene Starts - the “big bang”, starting scenes with energy, commitment and teamwork

- Scene Endings - tools to more consistently find good endings

- Variety - we’ll expand our understanding and our tools, with the goal of being able to put on stage any situation/moment we can imagine

- Ensemble - let’s work together to create less conflict and more detail!

- Wheres & Action - we’ll develop more skills to BE places, DO things, and MOVE within and between locations

- Advanced Yessing - you probably think you know how to say Yes. Let’s think again.

- Details - we’ll explore the Who/What/When/Why/Where of scenes. The variety is 

endless!


This workshop is guaranteed to change your perspective on Open Scenework, for good!
