In this workshop, Ezra will be bringing out the best characteristics of the actors while applying the rules of IMPROV to their improvised scene development. Ezra takes the students through physical and vocal warmup exercises (yes, even on Zoom) and moves into concentration exercises (mirror, listening, staying positive). Ezra will introduce some fun improv-based games as well as longer, improv scenes.
