Ever hear a story and think "that is so fun! I wish I could have been there!"?
In Armando, you'll learn how to take these details from a story to inspire whole worlds of scenes and games. You'll learn how to find inspiration for scenes out of real life moments, and how to honor the ideas of a story without recreating it or mocking it. You'll also get practice at telling a great story for an improv show.
This class will be a deep dive into storytelling, pulling premises, playing game, justification, callbacks, A to C thinking, and second beats.
