Level: Advanced
Cost: €80

Date: Saturday March 28
Time: 10:00am - 4:00pm (with 1 hr lunch break at 1:00pm)

This is an advanced-level workshop culminating in a Thursday evening performance. You'll perform alongside other advanced narrative improvisers under the teacher’s direction. Application required: see our FAQ for how applications work. Max 9 participants.

In this immersive improvisation workshop, performers will explore how time, memory, and imagination can transform a single setting into an entire universe. Over the course of the workshop, participants will develop the skills and instincts to create vivid, interconnected scenes that span different time periods— past, present, and future — all unfolding in one evolving location. Through ensemble exercises, sensory work, and collaborative worldbuilding, we’ll discover how to weave emotional continuity across eras, finding echoes between characters, themes, and moments.
