Level 4: Intro to Musical Longform

Service Description

Prerequisites: Level 2 Narrative and Level 3 Musical games OR equivalent intermediate improv experience and *some* musical experience Mondays, 19:00-21:30, March 9-April 27 Class Show: May 4 This course is a pre-requisite for Level 5: Long Musical Narratives Music plays a huge role in movies, television and theater, and can add a whole new dimension to comedic improvisation. The best part is you don't need a trained voice! In fact, it's often funnier to have a mix of trained and untrained voices on stage. Taught by Tina Marie Serra and Joseph Pierce of Kaleidoscope, Berlin's premiere musical improv troupe, who regularly play to sold-out houses in both Germany and abroad. This Level 4 class will focus on introducing the concepts of long-form musical improv. Together, we’ll create a conscious, supportive space where we’ll focus on strong listening, making bold choices, and working together as a team. We’ll empower each other with the “Freedom to Fail,” thereby unleashing our inner creativity. Over 8 classes we'll be exploring the role of music in improv through long-form oriented scene work. We’ll also have a ton of fun and make new friends! In the end-of-class show, you’ll get to show off all you’ve learned to an invited audience of family and friends. Please note the extra cost is for having a dedicated musical director. We can't wait to laugh and learn with you!
