Master teacher and former Second City faculty member, Jeffrey Lyn Hall, will take you on a rapid fire ride into the art form of Improvisation. This class will focus on The Ensemble Concept of Acting, truth in the moment, breaking down subconscious walls and barriers that can hold an actor back, increasing your mental agility and physical awareness on stage. Fun and challenging mental, physical and emotional games will give the actor a new storehouse of tools to use in any acting situation.

Never again be at a loss for something to do when a director says, "Now try something different."
