Event
Access Character from People who already Exist - Ashley Comeau
As part of Improv Fest Ireland 2014
www.improvfestireland.com
In this nurturing boot camp-styled class, we will focus on enriching character development through truth.
First half of the class we delve into accessing truth of self in your characters. Throwing away notions of "trying to be funny" and just focussing on accessing the root of your own memories and experiences. Trust us, the funny will come from that!
Second half of the class we will apply this logic to notable celebrities or persons of public reputation to access grander more referenced based people for the stage.
This workshop is co-taught by Sam Roulston.
*Note you needn't be a member of Mensa or obsessed with celebrities to take this class.
