Discover a fresh approach to improvisational theater through the perspective of The Viewpoints, a movement-based method developed by Anne Bogart and Tina Landau, in this four week Mini Bubble with Sara! The Viewpoints entices performers to think and act upon movement, gesture, and the creative use of space.
During the first three Mondays of the Bubble, we focus on the three core themes of Body, Space and Time. We'll look closely at the key Viewpoints that make up these main three points of focus that are most relevant to improvisational theater. Amongst others, these key viewpoints will be: gesture, shape, repetition, spatial relationship, duration and architecture. During the last session we will put them all together and apply them to more indepth scene work.
Whether you're new to Viewpoints or curious how to integrate them into your improvisation practice, this workshop invites you to move, respond, and create from the body and the moment.

Who this is for
This is one of our Bubbles. These courses are intended for improvisers who already have an understanding of the basics, perhaps (but not necessarily) through our own Starting Steps courses and then have taken some other basic intermediate courses too, to have strong foundational skills. If you’re wondering which course is right for you, then feel free to email us.
This particular course is suitable for intermediate and advanced improvisers and we particularly welcome performers who are in a troupe or forming one. Or any improvisers working on a show- this will turbocharge your production values!
