[Monday] Maximize the Fun: the First 30sec - Laura Maynard

The Murderet are thrilled to welcome Laura Maynard to Geneva for a weekend of workshops and a community jam night!

Laura is an experienced improviser, performer, teacher and writer, and after ten years in Chicago, she is now a full-time cast member and instructor at Boom Chicago in Amsterdam.

This weekend is about building strong, transferable improv skills, whether you play short form, long form, or both. Expect practical tools, lots of play, and a focus on connection, discovery, and having fun together as a community!

The workshop:
Maximize the Fun: the First 30s 
==> Build confidence in starting scenes and keeping them playful from the first line
~~~

Prerequisite: 1-2 years of improv classes

Do you ever find yourself really overthinking the beginning of the scene and it can be hard to get those first few lines out? This workshop is for improvisers who love the scene once it gets going but sometimes have a difficult time starting out. Learn how to have the most fun with your scene partner as soon as the scene starts! You’ll be able to get lots of practice at kicking scenes off with a solid foundation.

~~~

Join us on the Community Jam Night (Saturday 7:30pm)!

Once registered to this workshop, we’ll send out a link so you can register for the Community night where you can join the short form jam! Priority will be given to workshop participants, then opened to all at a later stage

Cost: 75chf

Hosted by The Murderet

Geneva's English-speaking troupe devoted to murder mystery and long-form improv. 

Since 2017, we've been cooking up stories where comedy tangles with suspense, using a mix of playful creativity and storytelling. Along the way, we've also strayed into other formats, from fresh spins on long-form to immersive theatre, always chasing the fun of discovering what might happen next!
