Truth And Beauty
In this one-day workshop, Jill Bernard will take you through a series of exercises that inject your work with a little bit of truth and beauty. Having the ability to create improv that is honest and vulnerable adds another layer to your work, a little bit of cake underneath your frosting to take your work from light entertainment to something with resonance. Please wear closed toe shoes to this workshop. Limit 16 students.
Instructor: Jill Bernard
Day: Saturday, 3:00 pm - 6:00 pm

Musical Improv for the Rest of Us
If you think counting beats and saving rhymes is tough, you're right. While those tools make for powerful improvised song structures for the pros, what about the rest of us who feel crippled by them? This one-day workshop will cover how to use 1) simple repetition, 2) expressive emotion, and 3) simple repetition to create catchy tunes that get you by. Limit 16 students.
