IMPROV ONLINE!
DO YOU LOVE IMPROVISATION?
Students will explore their passion for improvisation in an online format. Students will work in small groups to tap into their creativity through a wide variety of improvisation games and activities, each building on the next to develop collaboration, problem-solving, and quick-thinking skills. The week will end with an online showcase of improv scenes and techniques that family and friends can be invited to watch.
HOW THE CAMP WILL BE STRUCTURED ONLINE
Activities will be geared toward both the beginning and the more experienced improvisor. The number one requirement is a willingness to jump in and try!
Students will learn to use Zoom so that small groups of performers can interact and perform improv scenes. A culminating showcase of scenes will be performed on the final day.
We will be using Zoom. To successfully participate, you will need a laptop, tablet, smart phone or computer with a webcam (internal or external) and reliable internet connection. Please reach out to us if you have any questions or concerns about your ability to participate due to a lack of access to technology.
We also ask that IMPROV ONLINE! participants have easy access to paper and colored pencils or markers.
Improv Online! carries a registration fee of $95.
Please check out details on our SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM if financial assistance is needed to allow you to participate.
Scholarship applications should be submitted BEFORE registering.
Due to the short timeframe of the camp, participation in the culminating showcase is dependent on full attendance throughout the week. Missed rehearsals may necessitate that a participant's role be modified or reduced for the success of the overall showcase.
