Impro System Workshop with Theresa Robbins Dudeck Ph.D.

You’ve probably heard of Theatresports or of the Theatresports-inspired television show Whose Line Is It Anyway? But did you know that most of the impro methods used in these popular entertainments originated from the work Keith Johnstone developed for/with professional actors at the Royal Court Theatre in the 1960s? In this introduction to Johnstone’s unique system of impro training, participants will engage in several of his most popular games, exercises, and techniques. This workshop is for theatre artists of all levels and for anyone who is interested in acquiring a better understanding of how impro tools can support the performance process, inspire characters and good narratives.
