EIIF: Unclusterf*ck Yourself

with Lilan Bowden

(Sun 23 Mar: 1:10pm) - SOLD OUT

How do you manage to have an amazing, clear, hilarious scene when there are just too many people in the scene?! This workshop is for any improviser who has had the experience of being on stage and, try as they might, the players cannot help but fall into an unsatisfying tangle of words and ideas.

Empower yourself to confidently enter these scenes with any character or perspective and learn to work together to artfully streamline those clustery group scenes!

Participants should have basic improv training.
