Improvisation!
 This program will be a 40 minute interactive improve session! Whether for fun and laughter or for tuning up your creativity, Improv is a wonderful tool for life. Sandra and Kimberly will lead a few exercises and games to sharpen our spontaneity in the classroom, the business meeting, on stage, or in our “unscripted” lives. Prepare to surprise yourself and laugh a lot! Sandra Rockman, a longtime local theatre director and teacher, had been offering “Instant Improv” locally for ten years before Covid put a halt to classes. She has brought Improv to settings as diverse as Nevada County Environmental Health Department and InConcert Sierra’s Board of Trustees, as well as the Nevada County Community Leadership Institute’s Arts Day, among others. Kimberly Ewing, also a local theatre & film actor, has been playing & performing Improv with Sacramento’s Comedy Spot as well as with a local, all-female Improv group called MenoPosse. She has been co-leading Improv sessions for educators, and local businesses, and hosting a monthly Improv Playdate locally. Photo credits: Drew Horwath |
