So You Are Alone on Stage...Improv Workshop by Brendon Bennentts

Learn strategies to help you feel confident when starting a scene alone.

One of the signs of a confident improviser is the ability to comfortably start a scene alone without immediately calling someone else on. We will practice some tried and tested strategies for starting strong scenes solo, as well as how we can make an inviting space for another player to join us. Then we’ll flip things around and look at how a second player can enter to support and enhance what has already been set up.

This is a preview of Brendon's sold out workshop for the NZ Improv Festival.

This workshop is designed for any improviser who feels nervous when left alone onstage, whether a beginner or an expert.
