Throughout the summer we host 4 different focuses!
Improv Games / Shortform:
Come and master the fundamentals of improv games and short scenes. Through an introduction to character, storytelling, and giving and taking focus, every camper will walk away with a vast knowledge of theatre games.
Character:
Everyone has interesting characters in their life. A funny uncle, a cooky cousin. Learn how to develop different characters and put them into scenes. Through a series of improv games and exercises each camper will have at least two characters in their back pocket.
Story:
Tell the best story! Through a series of improv games and exercises learn how to introduce characters, build conflict and find a resolution. Every scene tells a story!
Improv and Sketch:
Improv and sketch can go arm in arm. Through storytelling, character creation and reincorporation learn how improv can be used as a writing tool. Age appropriate sketches and scenes from Second City, Saturday Night Live, Monty Python and more will be viewed.
Explore the fundamentals of improv. Build self-confidence, listening and communication skills and develop creative thinking, team building skills and empathy. Each week is a different theme! Character development, improv games, exploring the narrative (story) and sketch (learning how to use improv as a writing tool).
