hall of mirrors
Saturday, May 13th, 2023
11:00am - 5:00pm (with lunch break) Happier Valley Comedy Theater (1 Mill Valley Rd in Hadley) $150 This workshop is only for HVC Mainstage cast members. |
Connections create meaning, and the more connections we find between our scenes the more meaningful our performance will be. In this one day intensive we'll be diving into the Hall of Mirrors, a loose and deceptively easy longform structure built around the idea of exploring relationships between disparate sets of scenes and characters. Simple enough for the intermediate improviser, but also challenging enough for the experienced performer looking to enhance their longform, the Hall of Mirrors is the piece that we discover in the very process of creating it together.
This workshop is only for HVC Mainstage cast members.
