Make imaginary objects feel real! Sharpen your physical storytelling with this hands-on workshop focused on bold, believable object work.
About this Event

Bring your scenes to life with vivid, convincing object work in this focused two-hour workshop! Learn how to create, manipulate, and react to imaginary objects with clarity and commitment, making your scenes feel more real and immersive. We’ll explore techniques for establishing object size, weight, texture, and function—plus how to share and maintain object “reality” seamlessly with your scene partners. Through playful exercises and scene work, you’ll gain confidence using props that exist only in imagination, helping to deepen storytelling, boost physicality, and engage your audience fully. Perfect for improvisers looking to sharpen their physical storytelling skills and elevate every scene.

Daytime workshops at the Big Couch Binge offer something for improvisers of all levels—from those just starting out to seasoned performers looking to deepen their skills. This particular workshop does require basic improv knowledge.

And, don't forget about our multi-workshop passes that provide a discount when taking more than one workshop on either day. See our full event page for workshop bundles.
