In this form class, we'll use organic edits and scene-work techniques to create hyper fluid improvisation to surprise and elate. Physical transformations, organic sound-and-movements, a snippet of dialogue or a borrowed object; all can be organic ways to propel you from one scene to the next. With a heavy focus on discovery, teamwork, and scene-work, we'll use the power of the ensemble to take our pieces and scenes to the next level.
