In this workshop with veteran improviser, Anthony Atamanuik, you’ll slow scene work down and discuss how to set intentions with each line. How do you feel about your scene partner? How do you feel about the scene? Everything your character says should clarify these questions, adding nuance and meaning to the scene. Expect side coaching in order to “stress test” the scene.
