Performing Improv Level 1: Telling Stories

The Bristol Improv Theatre 50 SAINT PAULS ROAD, Bristol, United Kingdom

Stories and storytelling are a fundamental part of the human experience. We shape the world around us into narratives that we can understand, forming deep emotional connections to the tales that resonate with us. A keen improviser can play on this narrative instinct to craft engaging stories on the fly and leave a delighted audience asking ‘How did they do that!?’
