THE TAO OF IMPROV with Kevin Gillese
Saturday Oct. 5, 2024
1.30 – 6.30 pm
The Tao of Improv – is all about using contrast as a way of discovering the good stuff in a scene. Call it what you want: irony, opposites, breaking the pattern. This is my personal approach to improvisation. When everything is sad, find a reason to be happy. When everything is in chaos, find the order. When the scene has gone too long, find an ending!
“Whatever is flexible and flowing will tend to grow, whatever is rigid and blocked will wither and die.” – Tao Te Ching
