SUMMARY:Improv Techniques with Paul Birch (Workshop)
DESCRIPTION:Our first workshop of 2023! Join improv king\, Paul Birch\, and explore short-form improvisation\, familiar to anyone who has watched an episode of Whose Line Is It Anyway. Taking the techniques of improvisation teachers such as Spolin\, Johnson and Close\, discover ways to create characters and build comic scenes without ever worrying if they are funny or not. Paul will build on his last workshop for YSCP by introducing some group-based improvisation\, digging further into character\, energy and point of view. But the workshop will be suitable for those who have never attended one before. \nThis workshop is open to all – no experience necessary! Cost: £10 for YSCP members and £15 for non-members. To reserve your place\, email: maurice.crichton@ntlworld.com \nAbout Paul\nPaul is a playwright\, practitioner and performer. He has made work with and for Audible\, Birmingham Rep\, Bristol Old Vic\, City Varieties\, Colet Court\, Cheltenham Everyman\, Leeds Grand\, Leeds Playhouse\, NCEM\, Polka\, Riding Lights Theatre Co\, Sixth Sense\, Spiteful Puppet and regular collaborations with York Theatre Royal. He specialises in improvisation and has trained in improv at iO Chicago and on the conservatory programme at the legendary Second City. \nWhy improv?\nYour YSCP committee think there might be enough interest within the YSCP community to establish an improv group that meets regularly\, perhaps working towards a performance of some kind. To try to make this happen\, we have asked Paul to deliver this workshop focusing on group-based improvisation. After the workshop\, we’ll have a short discussion about forming an improv group of our very own.
