EIIF: Game Monster
with Ronnie Adrian
(Sat 2 Mar: 10am - SOLD OUT)
Ronnie believes everything is important in an improv scene. But he also believes that once “the game” is established, that becomes the MOST important thing in the scene.
This workshop will start by making sure your basic scene fundamentals are second nature. Then you’ll play with some lessons in agreement in an effort to support better gameplay.
After that you will drill scene work with a focus on making sure once an agreed upon game is established, everything in the scene after that is either a reinforcement of that discovery or reflective of it. There are many ways to play and support game. This workshop will give you practice with some of those ways.
"I’m going to make you play game. Don’t be mad at me because I made you play game."
Ronnie Adrian is a performer based out of Los Angeles, California. He has taught at such institutions as The Upright Citizens Brigade theater and World’s Greatest Improv School. He has acted in film and television as well as writing for TV (if that’s something you’re interested in knowing). He has performed in cities all around America and you can often catch him in LA with his various groups most notably The Dragons, Bangarang and The Big Team. He does other things besides comedy but this is a comedy bio so he’ll keep those things to himself.
