Shapeshifting to Discover Character in Relationship

As improvisers we don’t have time to plan characters story and motivation. That’s why it s more efficient for us to explore shaping character from the outside in. This workshop will teach you how to keep your head free from motivation, backstory, and other blocks to free flowing play rooted in discovery. In other words by developing these new skills you free yourself from planing what to do and you will develop characters (with a physical perspective and delivery) who know what to say and how to behave in relation to the space and other players.
