You have experience improvising and some of your scenes go well. But too often they still flounder. Good outcomes and great audience reactions are shaky and unpredictable. And a really rewarding ending is difficult to come by.

The answer to a crafting a sturdy scene with lasting impact could be the foundation you build it on.

In this workshop, we will train how to mould the stage and setting in such a way that we really enjoy composing it. We define characters and relationships that have depth and touch the audience’s heart. We practise laying down details and mysteries so we can use them to resolve the story elegantly yet surprisingly. We generate material too look back on, like when Keith Johnstone describes storytelling as ‘proceeding at full speed with a view to the rear-view mirror’.

Only from a good platform is the spring into the unknown strong, safe and satisfying!
