Patti Stiles is coming from the land down under to teach two incredible improv workshops in one day! Attend either or both!

The Canadian press calls Patti Stiles the “Queen of Improvisation”. She cut her teeth in an improv apprenticeship under Keith Johnstone (at Loose Moose Theatre). With over 40 years of theatre experience, Patti is an incredible teacher, as well as co-Artistic Director of Impro Melbourne, Australia. "Patti Stiles was one of my mentors," said Nathan Fillion.

Her book "Improvise Freely: Throw away the rulebook and unleash your creativity" has been received with critical acclaim and marked her as a next generation legend.

Workshop 1
GIFTS TO INSPIRE YOUR SCENE PARTNERS
Improvisers who inspire, surprise and delight their partners are the most fun to play with. How do they do this magic? This workshop explores exercises and techniques to help you delight, surprise and inspire your scene partner: How to change them, affect them, and watch them light up.

Workshop 2
NO ISN’T ALWAYS A BLOCK – SOMETIMES THE BEST YES IS A NO
Learning to accept each other’s offers is vital in improvisation. However, many improvisers end up being trained in a ‘Pavlovian’ response to create improvisation through saying yes! to everything without understanding the offer or the story. This workshop will show you that sometimes the best Yes is a NO!
