Description

Crescendo (an increase of intensity) is one of the fundamental tools of theater and comedy. In this class: we focus on how to build a crescendo from anything. Using body, space, voice, text, imagination and audience rapport, we will explore this together.

What is the first theme you discover? How do you develop from the smallest thing? How do you give way to your impulse rather than give your impulse away? How far you can take an action/ emotion/ idea into the unknown? When do you stop and why?

A great tool for clowns, bouffons, improvisers & sketch comedians.

Note:

Class may end 30 minutes earlier than scheduled depending on number of enrollments.
