Do you attack a scene with reckless abandon? Or do you analyze the cold logic of a scene? Or do you stay hidden in the shadow, ready for a precision strike? The best improv teams need all three. A pirate to charge without fear, a robot to keep the ship steady and a ninja to round your set into a masterpiece. In this workshop, I show you how to shape-shift between roles, enhance your natural strengths and be an all-rounded improviser.

They say improv is storytelling, but which stories are you telling? Did you grow up with the western fairy tale Cinderella or The Frog and Princess? Or did you grow up with the eastern folklore Malin Kundang like The Ox and The Kancil? It’s time to hear these stories from other parts of the world and play with them! You will become open to other stories in the world, learn how to play even when you don’t know the culture references, and reflect that maybe you know about your cultural roots more than you expect.
