Description
How do we create unique and interesting characters on the improvised stage? Physicality and vocalization are the key but how do we discover these elements quickly and what are the motivations behind those choices? Through exercises and games we will learn how to lock in on strong character choices that will help guide and enhance our scene work while finding several different paths to character creation.
