This workshop will cover how to use tenants of clowning in your improv. With exercises in freeing movement and thought, connection with the audience and connection with your stage partners. Business Casual will also share their approach to devising written sketches through improvised characters and scenes. The trio, who has been working together for almost a decade, will share their approach to collaboration and group devising that’s helped them create hours and hours of material. We encourage comedy partners and ensembles to take this class together so that we can take advantage of connections that have already been created!
