April 2013 What Are You Laughing At? Improv Workshop with Zach Ward

What Are You Laughing At?: For some people improv is WHAT we do. But what do I do? I perform comedy. Improv is just HOW I do it. If you bill yourself as a comedy group or even just an improviser who wants to consistently make people laugh it’s important to understand WHY we laugh at things? What are the keys to comedy? What about our scenes are funny? How do we process our choices in real time WHILE we’re performing the scene and continue to be invested AT THE SAME TIME? My class breaks down scenes and character options so that every new word, every look, every gesture and every reaction from the crowd can AND WILL shape your next move… so EVERY two-person scene you perform is the funniest it can possibly be.
