Pure Impro! – Physical improvisation workshop in Tallinn

Improvisation as pure as it gets – the kind nobody asked for. And fewer dare to do.
Uncompromising. No good manners, no hedging. This is improvisation untainted by reluctance and misguided politeness. Four hours of playing without restraint: full characters, big imagination, choices made out loud and stood by.
Full commitment is the name of the game – to a character, an impulse, a frankly bad idea – and not taking it back. Most improvisers stay safe, reasonable, and (let’s face it) predictable. This is the cure.
What we work on:
• playing what occurs to us without holding back
• imagining loudly and committing to it
• standing by choices we didn't know we were making
• letting it rip
For performers who want to stop playing it safe.
Bring a sense of humour.
