A one day deep dive for our most advanced students!
The Spotlight offers a group dissection of scenework with a major focus on personal improvement. Based on critical feedback from both the instructor and your peers, we'll tailor exercises or challenges to specifically target your personal habits, ruts, and weaknesses. The whole class will actively participate in giving each student multiple opportunities to actively work on their challenge. Again, this workshop will include direct, critical feedback from both the teacher and your peers - leave your ego at the door for this class. It's your turn in the spotlight!
Prerequisite: Any Tier 2 Advanced Improv class
