Imposters Theater Virtual Improv & Writing Workshops Begin This Week!
by Imposters Comedy 10 May '21

10 May '21

*Imposters Theater**New Virtual Workshops Begin This Week* <https://imposterstheater.us17.list-manage.com/track/click?u=2b317370dae2166…> *Improv: Monologues & Initiations* <https://imposterstheater.us17.list-manage.com/track/click?u=2b317370dae2166…> Wednesday 05/12 7-9pm When it comes to longform improvisation, how you start is important. If you put in the work up top, you won’t find yourself struggling to invent things later on. Monologues are one of the most accessible ways to begin an improv set, creating a shared world of stories and details between audience and performers. <https://imposterstheater.us17.list-manage.com/track/click?u=2b317370dae2166…> *5 Tools To Jumpstart Your Writing* <https://imposterstheater.us17.list-manage.com/track/click?u=2b317370dae2166…> Saturday 05/15 3-5pm It’s an amazing feeling when inspiration strikes - it seems like we can hardly type fast enough to get all that brilliance from our brains to the page. But to make it as a writer, you also have to teach yourself to write when you aren’t inspired. In this workshop we will focus on practical ways to get your brain moving when it feels like it’s stuck in park. <https://imposterstheater.us17.list-manage.com/track/click?u=2b317370dae2166…> *Creating Comedic Characters* <https://imposterstheater.us17.list-manage.com/track/click?u=2b317370dae2166…> Wednesday 05/19 7-9pm This workshop will go over basic comedic structure, ways to find inspiration for characters, and how to pitch your idea. Everyone will have a chance to pitch their character idea, get feedback from the instructor and the group, and come out of it with a solid plan to bring your character to life. <https://imposterstheater.us17.list-manage.com/track/click?u=2b317370dae2166…> *Improv: Patterns & POV* <https://imposterstheater.us17.list-manage.com/track/click?u=2b317370dae2166…> Sunday 05/23 1-3pm Comedy is driven by patterns, point of view, and patterns. Having a strong POV for your character frees you from the stress of ‘inventing’ funny things and deciding how to respond; instead you can just focus on your character’s worldview, and apply it to each new situation.
