What are the core elements of improvisational theatre? What do we need from ourselves and our partner to start improvising, and how can we create trust in ourselves that we’ll come up with something on the spot? 

These are questions you will explore during the 8-week Fundamentals course. You’ll explore our vision of improvisational theatre and learn the beginnings of characters, object work and emotions.

Gael Workshop “Improv toolbox: Freeform, scene edits and organic transitions”

March 12th 15:30

Gael has practiced improv for about 15 years in Strasbourg and then Amsterdam. He is the co-founder of Flock Theatre, Anananas & Pampamplemousse (formerly La Carpe Haute), as well as the SIN, an international network of improvisers in Europe. He is currently the artistic director of ImproAmsterdam.

We all love to see movies with smooth and gentle transitions. To see different pieces of a jigsaw fall in place, echoing previous themes in parallel dimensions. To follow a camera moving and jumping from a character to another without the viewer noticing it.
This is a workshop about transitions and edits, to create organic freeform shows, without any break. Using different techniques (from classical improv edits revisited to movie shots), you will learn different tools you can use to improve your freeform, longform or even shortform shows.
Based on a total trust in your partners, you will experiment a new intensive way of improvising, where the game is everywhere, at every moment, without a pause.
Boundaries aren’t limits, they create playgrounds!

The cost of this workshop is 40 Euros. 70 Euros for both workshops on the same day.
To register please contact Wang: wangjia0820@yahoo.com

Gael Workshop “A thousand inspirations for characters”

March 12th

Gael has practiced improv for about 15 years in Strasbourg and then Amsterdam. He is the co-founder of Flock Theatre, Anananas & Pampamplemousse (formerly La Carpe Haute), as well as the SIN, an international network of improvisers in Europe. He is currently the artistic director of ImproAmsterdam.

“Ah, here is Gael’s old man, we didn’t see him yet today!” was something one of my fellow players used to say to me. This old man pops up frequently in my play. But how to find inspiration to play a wider variety of characters? What is the good way for you to create?
This workshop will show you that there are as many true answers as there are people. Using different usual sources of inspiration (from the four elements, your voice, your body, the characteristics of your character, your partner, the environment, music), we’ll define together what speaks to you and how to combine those techniques to create your very unique way of being inspired.
If you ask my inspiration core? Music!

The cost of this workshop is 40 Euros. 70 Euros for both workshops on the same day.
To register please contact Wang: wangjia0820@yahoo.com
