CHARACTER CREATION
Characters are at the heart of every improvisation - the DNA of our craft.  We'll explore the tools needed to develop authentic and unique characters with emotional truth, and put them into your performance. Your characters are your friends and guides - let them inspire you.

3:00 PM - 6:00 PM (PST/MST)
THAT DARN WHAT

We all say Who What and Where in improvisation, but the WHAT is always the most difficult to nail down. We'll discover the three major types of "WHAT" needed to create scenic and character action.  Acting is a verb, and the WHAT is our character's call to action.
