About this Event
About this Workshop:
Do you find yourself stuck when faced with an improvised solo? Do you struggle with grounding yourself in emotion, committing with your whole body and owning your choices?
In this workshop, Un-Scripted Theater's Molly Robertson will help you explore how to use emotional dynamics and stage presence to amp up your performance and find your spotlight. Because it's not so much what you sing, as it is how you sing it.
Students will learn tools for how to dial their emotions up and down in order to create a more dynamic performance, and learn how to use skills like physicality, stillness, breath and focus to draw in the audience in and hold their focus.
Due to this workshop being focused on solos, there are limited spots available.
Date, Time & Location: This three hour workshop will take place on Saturday, April 18 from 10:00am to 1:00pm at the Endgames Improv training center at 2989 Mission St, San Francisco.
Advanced Students Welcome: This workshop is open to those who have studied or performed musical improv at the advanced level.
Maximum Capacity: In order to ensure the best possible experience for those taking part, we are capping this workshop at a maximum of 10 total students.
