Improv – Perspective and Magical Realism

Introduction to Impro Match – Team up and show your skills
Impro Match is a form created in Canada, structured like a hockey game to lure sports fans into the theatre, and it’s heavily popular in France and Spain, adapted to a football match format. Don’t worry if you’re not a sports fan. It might be rules, fouls, teams, benches and coaching… but it comes down to improv.
This form pushes the improviser to be aware of the basics of improv and theatre while being 100% original.
Duration 3-4 hours
Long form improv – The bench
How many stories can fit in a single day in a single location? The Bench is a long improv format that allows the performers to explore unique characters and their interaction with others through all the different beats of the show.
From sunrise to sunset, in a condensed way, the audience will have front seat to this slice of life. It’s up to the performers to decide how dramatic or wacky it is.
Duration 3-4 hours
Theatre in Education – Bring the game to the class
Theatre can reveal itself as an educational tool of main importance for the social and personal development of the student, no matter their age or social background.
Creative action for educational purposes doesn’t mean neglecting the proper and conventional learning of the students. This workshop aims to combine the knowledge acquired in the classroom and used it creatively for a better understanding while having fun with theatre games.
Offered as an extracurricular activity for schools.
