SUMMARY:Solo Improv with Andre Besseling
DESCRIPTION:Soloimprov: the art of improvising with yourself \nBooking below \nWhether you are planning to go solo or not\, the tools of the workshop are essential to all improvisers. Whatever format or style you are playing\, you always have to take your time\, use acting skills and stay in the moment. All of these tools and techniques are explored in this workshop. \nWe shall do several exercises on different formats\, scenebuilding and storytelling\, using the usefull model: ‘The IMPRO-circle’. It explains how improvisation really works\, whether you are playing solo or not. After this workshop you will feel confident on improvising on your own\, so you will be even better\, when you are playing with others. \n \nAndre Besseling \nAndre has been a professional improvisor and trainer since 1990. He focuses on the use of theater and improv-skills in scene work and dramatic situations. He sees Improv is a great way to have fun and work at the same time on one’s personal development. The focus on solo-improv makes this even a stronger focuspoint.\nAndre is a pioneer of improv-theater and Theatresports in Holland. He has taught hundreds of improv-workshops to almost all the main improv-groups in and outside Holland. Besides initiating several improv-groups\, he started the festival IMPRO-Amsterdam and currently is the artistic director of the IMPRO-academy and the REMI-festival\, the Amsterdam festival on solo-improv.\nHe has written a bestseller about improv-theater: ‘Theater vanuit het Niets’ (Theater out of Nothing)
