ACTING FOR IMPROVISERSThis four-session course is designed to give improvisers space to practice simple acting techniques that help develop authenticity in improvised scenes and games. Bringing these skills to improv also builds connection between characters and helps form more compelling stories for the audience. We will practice staying present, look closely at moving from moment-to-moment, and make sure our actions allow space for reaction. Becoming aware of how we use our mind, our body, and our heart while improvising is essential. These skills are a must for improvisers who want to reach for more meaningful characters and stories.Dates: Jan 5, 12, 19 and 26Time:11:30am - 2pmLocation: Unexpected Productions Improv School, Georgetown Studios, 650 South Orcas, Rm 217 Seattle, WA 98108 <a href="https://goo.gl/CMCRQp" title="https://goo.gl/CMCRQp" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://goo.gl/CMCRQp</a>Maximum Students: 14Cost: $150Prerequisite: Improv 200 or equivalent or by teacher approvalAges: 18+Instructor:Cynthia Lair began her life as an actress with a B.A. in theater.
