Joy Of Johnstone.  BOOK

Keith Johnstone was unconventional. His observations and philosophy redefined approaches to theatrical improvisation. Keith’s work is built upon breaking rules, learning from one’s mistakes and a belief in every individual’s unique worth and creativity, He encouraged students to be average, to be obvious, to take risks and embrace failure. Bring your curiosity, playfulness, and mischief as we dive into classic Keith Johnstone exercises and unleash spontaneity, embrace the obvious and be present in the moment.

Do Scenes Get Notes!  BOOK

There are valuable insights one can learn from receiving an outside perspective. A note that helps you question and reflect is useful.  Without feedback improvisors can grow anxious in uncertainty and lack of direction. This workshop focuses on constructive honest feedback relevant to the scene and skill level of the student. Notes will focus on skill and narrative technique, stage craft and needs of individual players. The aim is to shine a light on areas to work on.

I acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of Australia and their long and continuing relationship to the land and sea. I pay my respect to Elders past and present and extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples today. I acknowledge that I live on the traditional lands of the Wurrendjeri Woi Wurrung people of the Kulin nation. Sovereignty has never been ceded. It always was and always will be, Aboriginal land.
