Love performing but new to improvisation? This workshop is for you.
Improvising Stories unpicks the DNA of great narrative. Learn the structures behind classic story archetypes and discover the tools to build them spontaneously. Whether you want to explore the grand scale of Myth and Fantasy or the deep connection of Personal Autobiography, you'll gain the confidence to create on your feet.
Come with an open mind and leave having performed a brand-new story created entirely in the moment.
Whether you are an experienced improvisor or a theatre-maker looking to sharpen your storytelling, this session will give you the tools to "Wing It" with precision.
Mark has developed a toolkit that any improviser can apply to their spontaneous work. It has been featured in numerous shows, including The Incomplete Works (Improvised Shakespeare), Talk to the Hand (Puppet Improv), Gricers, and most recently, Talking Head Twice,
