It’s the bedrock of every relationship. You state your point of view, and your partner says theirs. Sounds easy, right? But how often are scenes derailed because the actors don’t hold onto their points of view or mindlessly add unnecessary details that throw the scene off course? Recognizing, maintaining, and evolving a point of view creates confident and exciting scenes.
STAGE DYNAMICS

Your awareness of the power of where you are on stage is vital to great scenework. The dynamics between you and your partner are defined not just by your dialogue but by where you are on stage when speaking. Each inch of that stage is there to help you better define your relationships, build tension, and make surprising discoveries. Explore the hidden treasures that lie beneath your feet.
INTENTION:
A Masterclass for Connecting to Your Partner
Saturday, June 27th

I’ve noticed how often two actors in a scene pull in myriad directions, each with a separate idea of where they’d like the scene to go. It’s as if they’re two different scenes—because they are. They aren’t communicating, so the scene is a mess that’s frustrating to be a part of and challenging to watch.
Intention is the glue that keeps you two in flow. The Intention workshop will give you tools to immediately see where you and your partner can connect and effortlessly play the beat like pros.
Longform Skills, Shortform Games

Longform and shortform improvisation aren’t mutually exclusive; they use the same skills that are the foundation for exciting work. Now that you know how to create great scenework, pop that skill set into the improv games you love. This all-day workshop will dive into classic shortform games, focusing on groundedness, connection, and character dynamics. Take Your Game Playing to the Next Level.
Prerequisite: This weekend workshop is open only to students who have attended at least one of the week’s previous workshops or a masterclass with Razowsky in person or virtually.
