SUMMARY:Scenes From Truth with Imogen Palmer
DESCRIPTION:Wednesdays | April 9th – May 21st (7-week course)| 18:30-21:00\nIn Scenes from Truth\, we practice bringing authenticity\,  truth and rich moments to improvised scenes and stories. Using techniques inspired by practitioners including Nadine Antler (Wurzberg Improv)\, Jason Shotts (IO Chicago) and Sanford Meisner\, we explore the freedom which can come when we give ourselves permission to use our own lives and memories as a starting point. \nSkills we’ll cover include:  \n\nActive listening\nThe power of vulnerability \nAccelerating connection with performers and audiences\nWeaving autobiographical material into improvisation\nActing truthfully under imaginary circumstances \n\nIf you’ve been improvising for a while and want to bring truth\, authenticity and groundedness to your skillset or if you are a performer new to improv who is craving a gentle way in\, this course is for you. This course is not recommended for anyone who has not performed on stage before.

SUMMARY:The Improv Gym
DESCRIPTION:Thursdays | 19:00 – 22:00\n(please see dates of upcoming events below)\nImprove your improv!  \nIn your journey through improv\, it isn’t always about acquiring a new skill for your improviser’s toolkit or throwing yourself into a new and unfamiliar style of play. Sometimes you need to practise your existing skills\, polish up your play\, and get your reps in with some feedback/pointers and constructive critique from an expert. Enter the Improv Gym! \nPart rehearsal room\, part personal improv training\, the Improv Gym is a facilitated space where you can work on your skills and draw upon the expertise of our experienced teaching staff. Each session will be led by a Bristol Improv Theatre Instructor who will warm you up and set you going with exercises\, games\, and scenes that will work on the skill areas that you want to improve\, before providing individualised feedback\, coaching\, and critique to help you get to the next level. \nIf you have a particular skill or piece of work that you want to focus on\, let the instructor know and they’ll tailor your session accordingly. If you’re working on something with specialised equipment\, skills\, or knowledge – such as puppetry\, singing\, dance\, or any props/technical requirements – please email theatreschool@improvtheatre.co.uk ahead of time so that we can prepare everything we’ll need to support you in the session. \nEach session lasts 3 hours and is capped at 8 places.  \nThe Improv Gym is about improving the skills you want to work on – if you’re looking for something a bit more structured or just want to turn up and play\, why not try our Improv Drop-ins? \nTo book your ticket\, simply choose your preferred date below.
