LECTURE/MASTERCLASS:
Matt Besser
A combination lecture/master class in which Matt Besser (founding member of UCB and host of the improvisational podcast Improv4Humans) leads improvisers of any experience and skill-range through scenes in order to demonstrate misunderstood strategies in performing long-form improv. The class will cover every facet of a successful scene. From openings and initiations to patterns and game, the lecture examines how each of these can work or fail. Not everyone will get on stage, but many audience members will be asked to demonstrate different skills and techniques.
NOTE: Matt is in town showing his film Freakdance on May 17th, 7PM at the Arlington Cinema & Drafthouse (Tickets Here).
