    Event description

    Intro to Improvised Rap (Online Workshop)

    This workshop will cover the basic building blocks of improvised rap, how to find your flow, how to successfully rhyme and land punchlines in improvised songs, all while keeping things fun, stress-free, chill and relaxed.

    The session involves a lot of writing with pen and paper, and not a huge amount of standing up alone and rapping on the spot. The atmosphere is always very relaxed, fun and supportive!

    Rapping is one of the things improvisers find most terrifying.

    This workshop will help you turn that fear into freedom and fun!

    Improvised rap is, additionally, a hugely useful skill for anyone currently improvising musicals and songs, or looking to further their musical improv repertoire.

    Previous improv experience preferable, but not required.
