Creating Characters for the Stage, Screen, & VO Booth with Kat Palardy (New Girl, TrollsTopia)
Tuesday 07/20 6:30pm-9:30pm
ONE SPOT LEFT
LA-based character comedian and actor Kat Palardy will help you build a character that opens doors! We'll warm up our bodies and souls and do some journal prompts, interviews and scenes with each other to find a strong physicality, point of view, and world for your character - one that you have worked on before, or just discovered - to live in! We'll find the funny, and lean into and heighten that!

Emotion Builds Character 2-Week Workshop with Dana Quercioli (Second City Chicago)
Wednesdays 07/28, 08/04 7:30-9:30pm
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.
