Have you ever been in the middle of a scene, and realized that you're
stuck? You and your scene partner are trying to figure out what happens
next? In this workshop Edgar Blackmon will teach you how to implement basic
principles of improv to ensure that you are always ready to move on to the
next beat of a scene.

Edgar Blackmon is an alumni of The Second City Touring Company as well as
The Mainstage. He starred in the movie Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping,
with The Lonely Island or in Mel Brooks’s History of the World Part 2!

<https://www.imposterstheater.com/schedule/mass-hysteria-workshop-erin-dolan>*

>From a silly twist to a punny joke, kids love to laugh! And if your
audience is kids, chances are their grown-ups are there, too! Give them
both something to laugh about! Hosted by Dobama Theater's Director of
Programs Erin E. Dolan.
2hrs - $30 - Capacity 16

*5:00pm*
*Emotion Builds Character with Dana Quercioli
<https://www.imposterstheater.com/schedule/mass-hysteria-workshop-dana-quercioli>*

This workshop will focus on how to create real characters and connections
in your improvisation. Getting to the game of the scene, committing to a
premise, and better listening all come from emotional exploration and a
willingness to play, and we'll learn together that humor's where the heart
is.

Dana Quercioli is a twenty year veteran of sketch comedy and improvisation,
and she has loved every second of it. She has been very fortunate to have
been a writer, actor and instructor at The Second City Chicago, The Second
City Cleveland, and all over the map with The Second City Touring Company.
2hrs - $40 - Capacity 14
