In this full day masterclass Anděl will take her 20 years of experience improvising professionally and work. you. out. She will focus on who you are and what you bring to the table and how you can be flexible without losing yourself. She’ll use her well of experience in both short and long form, theater, sketch and solo character work to allow you to step outside your comfort zone while resting in your abilities and solidifying your POV.
Playing with the rules and structures you’ll leave this workshop with a few new tools, the ability to be playful in different styles and even more a grasp of what it is that makes YOU special as an improviser and an artist. It will be a mix of writing, movement and improvisation. She will give personal feedback and ample time and space to apply notes. This intensive will be Accessible, Fun and Challenging-in that order.

Duration: 5 hrs + lunch break
Level: Open (Tier 2 and above)
Price: 70€
From mechanics to acting to connection we dive into what makes two person scenes so successful and satisfying. We will cover: How to ground a 2 person scene without losing the fire, how to fire them up while maintaining their reality within the world we’ve created and how plaaay within them while always playing the scene you are in.
Through focusing on character and POV we will explore the connection necessary to get your two person scenes off the ground and keep them enticing. We will also explore the dynamics of organic energy, bringing yourself into every scene and discovering the alchemy created with another person. Part mindfulness, part acting class, 100% creative collaboration.
