Course Description
This 2 hour workshop is intended to be a fun way for members of the community to come together, make new friends and practise their French and English skills while also developing theatre skills.
The workshop will consist of simple improvisation exercises and games with a focus on language. Some games will be conducted 100% in French, some 100% in English and some will be mixed language. Some games will not use any language at all! The activities are very easy to grasp and are ideal for any level of experience with improvisation. Similarly the workshop is open to anyone of any language proficiency in English of French.
The aim is to have fun with improvisation while experimenting with a less familiar language. Just come along and have a go!
