This workshop will explore the importance of relationship in scenes, staying true to your character while acknowledging and highlighting the absurdity of the improvised situation. This is where improv parallels surrealism and we get to some heavy yes-and'ing. In improv, if we need that extra push over the cliff, you know what we do? Put it up to eleven. (Those last two sentences should be read in a fake English accent.) Come put it up to eleven with Mosie.
