Intermediate Improv Class: Character & Physicality

Characters are the heart of improvisation. Engaging characters draw the audience into a scene and make them want to watch more. A character can also be a powerful way of connecting with other performers and finding your inspiration. And yet, as improvisors, we often end up playing ourselves on stage.

In this seven week course, you will begin to explore how to transform your body and voice on the stage, and challenge your physical and vocal habits. You will practice creating powerful, memorable characters perfect for both fun, comedic shows and more dramatic work. Themes and skills to be explored include:

• Exploring your Physicality & Voice

• Expert High and Low Status

• Motivations & Objectives

• Emotions & Mantras

DATE: Saturdays 5th April to 10th May 2025 (7 weeks)

TIME: 10:00am - 1:00pm

LOCATION: The Exchange, 81 Musk Avenue, Kelvin Grove, QLD 4059

All participants will be invited to demonstrate their skills at a graduation show at the end of the workshop.
