This workshop presents Joe Bill's keys to playing a great Improv Scene: Powerful Opening Moments, Proactive Listening & Reacting, and Definitively Working The 3 Points of Character Focus to forward into the middle and through to the end of the Scene. Feedback will focus on identifying tendencies and habits that aid or block the keys to successful scenes, as well as opportunities for growth towards becoming a dynamic Improviser.
