Mockumentaries are documentaries where the world and characters presented are exaggerated versions of reality. A freewheeling improvisational style fits the tone of the form perfectly, leading to hilarious effects in mockumentary films and TV shows. In this workshop, we will explore how to bring these narratives to life on stage!━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

⏳ Time: 09:45-16:45 daily (with a 1-hour lunch break)
