*Physicality for Zoom-prov with Elana Fishbein from NYC's The Magnet
Theater*
Creating Dynamic Scenes in a Teeny Tiny Box
Saturday 11/07 12pm-2pm
https://www.imposterstheater.com/current/p/physicality-for-zoomprov

Remote improv can easily default to stagnant scenes with two folks sitting
and staring at a screen... but when we start to play with physicality and
dynamic use of space, exciting things can happen! This workshop will
challenge folks to experiment beyond their perceived boundaries of the Zoom
box to create more vital, connected, and energizing scenes. Be ready to
move.
