Play Like an Artist: Character Deep Dive

Improv Workshop from 2pm-4:45pm

Treat yourself and your scene partner as geniuses as you learn to be inspired by the mundane and have your words truly inspire others. Through guided exercises you will craft a unique character of a master poet and experience the world through the eyes of an artist. Gain a greater appreciation of point of view and how it is reflected through your words and presence. You won’t be improvising poetry but you will be improvising as a master poet to experience the soul of an artist and to elevate your perspective to newer heights.

This is an inclusive, experiential workshop designed to guide you step by step in the creation of an inspired character that you will experience for an extended period of time. This workshop is for everyone, no familiarity or love for poetry is necessary.
