You opened a door to a whole new world when you took your first improvisation class.

Now it's time to unleash your creativity!

You opened a door to a whole new world when you took your first improvisation class. 

Now it's time to unleash your creativity and write your own stories.

ImproMafia is excited to launch its revamped applied improvisation workshop, Storytelling & Creativity. 

Through an engaging new curriculum, this workshop will teach students to recognise and honour their innate storytelling instincts, and bring that energy and vision to stage performance.

Discover the joy of generating ideas and working together to delight audiences with satisfying stories. Build worlds, characters and scenarios that inspire you and your fellow performers. Embrace risk and explore the bold variety and texture possible through improvisation. Most of all, have a bunch of fun.

Themes and skills to be examined include:

• Generating ideas

• Building strong scene starts, including platforms and tilting

• How to raise the stakes and build tensions in your scenes

• Finding your hero and sending them on a quest (which means something)

• Personal storytelling

It is  pre-requisite that you have completed a beginner's improvisation course. Contact us if you have any questions.

Term 4: 2021
