Let's go Impro

The workshop includes training students to perform an improvisational scene that embodies the elements of drama. This is achieved by giving the trainees dramatic hypotheses that include the idea of the scene and its characters, who have conflicting wills. These hypotheses are based on several life situations that involve relationships that can lead to conflict, such as parent-child relationships, teacher-student relationships, etc. Trainees are required to develop improvisational situations by utilizing the idea, characters, and proposed action to present a complete scene that includes improvisational arts such as: timing of speaking or interrupting, listening skills, teamwork, etc.
