Join us for a Longform Improv Workshop where you will have the opportunity to challenge yourself and stretch your skills!
Longform is a continuous improvised piece which is inspired from one or minimal suggestions. This differs to shortform where the games are defined for both the audience and the improvisers from the outset. In longform improv, the possibilities are truly endless with characters reappearing in different scenes, a main plot running in parallel to subplots, and different scenes and stories magically connected by improvisers. Sound challenging? It is, but it’s also incredibly thrilling and you’ll be amazed at the creative stories you will create with your fellow improvisers. In this workshop we will cover a specific longform format and you will have the opportunity to try it out in a safe, supportive and creative environment. Just like all our Dig Deep workshops, you can expect two hours of fun, creativity, learning and forming new connections with people here in Luxembourg.
This workshop is for those who have tried improv or acting before, if you have any questions on this please just send us a message.
Spaces are limited, so be sure to secure your spot early. We can’t wait to improvise with you!
Location: Le Croque Bedaine, Limpertsberg
