Monday, 21 April | 10:00 - 13:00 @ ATH Theatre

How to train improvisation by yourself? What principles, dynamics, and how can we keep ourselves in active training? Even when you have your troupe, how to work some of your personal skills by yourself? How to create and study a show in an empty rehearsal room? What you can use to guide you during a solo process? How do you connect and to what/who? From experience and personal research with training and doing a solo show, I present in this workshop the difficulties and some tools to work when loneliness knocks on your door! Listen to your inner voice and connections to what/who surrounds you. It may be a solo, but you're not alone!
