“The Gist” – threading stories together – for intermediate/advanced students.

7 Monday evenings from October 21, 7:00pm-9:30pm, @ Blank Creative, 15 Moore St, (right in the Canberra CBD)
This course is for anyone interested in storytelling. What makes a story that matters to the audience? How do we create truly engaging story threads and subplots in improvised theatre and then weave them together in a sophisticated way that an audience could never believe wasn’t scripted? How else can we associate different stories that do no crossover, so that an audience understands why these threads belong together in the one show?
This course will prepare you for any narrative long form show format you may ever have the chance to be part of, and oh, that’s right, you will be part of one at the end of the course in our showcase performance, should you choose to be. Take the next step in your improv journey and get The Gist.

7 Wednesday evenings from October 23, 7:00pm-9:30pm, @ Ainslie Arts Centre, Elouera St, (two blocks behind the CBD or Braddon shops)
In this inspiring and super-fun course we’ll look at all aspects and approaches to everything musical in improvised theatre. Yes, we’ll be singing, but we’ll also be dancing, making musical accompaniment, looking at our acting responses to underscoring, and we’ll use music in short form games, too!
If you are scared of singing or moving to music generally, you won’t be after this. If you’re already a musician, you’ll re-learn in organic ways that take you away from the dots and into comfortable collaboration with your fellow musicians and theatrical improvisers.
This is an Impro ACT specialty, and usually sells out, so take the chance to sign-up early, and of course, those in this class will have the chance to strut their stuff in our end-of-term showcase performance, should you choose to.
