In this workshop with side coach Aretha Sills open to players of all experience levels, we’ll explore Viola Spolin’s games and exercises that inspire theatrical improvisers to get out of the head and into the present time without any expectation of performing or being “on.” Our goal is to experience the many benefits of spontaneity and group play. Through a combination of meditative warm ups, sensory-awareness exercises, and delightful traditional children’s games, we’ll aim to have fun, release the intuition, and open up new avenues of personal expression. We will (briefly) touch on some of the contemporary brain science that helps us understand why Spolin’s work is so helpful in regulating our nervous systems, and find ways to take her playful methods into our everyday life when we find ourselves under pressure. No experience is needed, just a willingness to play! Visit: https://mockingbirdimprovsandiego.fourthwalltickets.com/classes/aretha-sills-workshop
