The Intro to Game of the Scene improv course is inspired by east coast theaters (UCB, BIG, & WIT), facilitated by Michael Hartwell. Longform game of the scene improv is challenging, fun, and cultivates incredible group mind! Michael will also provide an incisive language for discussing skills, scene work, and providing clear, practical notes for personal growth with side coaching and notes.
Commitment will be key to this course as we will build skills and group mind from one week to the next. If you know you will need to miss more than one class, please do not sign up at this time.
Michael’s philosophy on longform: “I am most focused on Game of the Scene-style, pattern-based play, largely informed by the Upright Citizens Brigade. Each class will start with some warm-ups, followed by exercises rooted in scene work and world-building. Each class will end with a whole group set and notes, applying insights from the earlier exercises. In addition to what I have to share with you, I would love to discuss different insights and exercises from the group at large, too.”
Logistics for the course:
6 classes on Tuesdays @ 7-9:30pm, 10/14 - 11/18 / StartingBlock (*expect for 10/21; will reserve alternate location)
Bonus rehearsal: Saturday, 11/22 @ 10am-12pm / StartingBlock
Showcase: Sunday, 11/23 @ 6-8:3pm / TBD (*likely Aubergine)
StartingBlock is located at 821 E Washington Ave
