Join us for a high-energy, joyfully challenging 3-day musical improv intensive led by Andrew Gentilli, a veteran performer with London’s renowned musical improv troupe Music Box, where he’s been making up stories in song for over 13 years.
Over the course of the workshop, Andrew will guide you through the essential ingredients of musical improvisation:
• Creating vivid characters your audience connects with
• Building powerful relationships that fuel dramatic and comic tension
• Bursting into memorable songs that feel inevitable and emotionally true
• Staging your scenes dynamically to make the most of the space and moment
• Structuring a musical show to shape your improvisation into a story with heart, stakes and satisfying arcs
This workshop will equip experienced improvisors with with the tools to create spontaneous, emotionally resonant musicals — and have a blast doing it.
No previous singing or musical training required — just a willingness to jump in, listen, and say “yes, and” with gusto.
Class Schedule:
Fri 24 October 7:00pm-10:00pm
Sat 25 October 7:00pm-10:00pm
Sun 26 October 7:00pm-10:00pm
