[Sunday] 2 Hours of Pure Improv Shenanigans! - Laura Maynard

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

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

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

The workshop:
2 Hours of Pure Improv Shenanigans! 
==> Learn to play with your scene partner, connect, and feel confident in any scene

Open to all!

These two hours will give each improviser an opportunity to feel like a rockstar as Laura shows you exercises that are all about recognizing your scene partner’s strengths through accessing skills you already possess with a newfound sense of energy, focus, and excitement.

Community Jam Night, Saturday 7:30pm

Priority will be given to workshop participants, with remaining spots opened to the public at a later stage.

Subsidized spots
We want these workshops to be as accessible as possible. A limited number of subsidized spots (50% off) are available if the full price would be a barrier.

Each person may claim one subsidized spot for the entire weekend.
Please email murderet.improv@gmail.com before registering.
If all subsidized spots are claimed, this will be indicated on the registration page.

Cancelation policy
We understand that life happens. A 50% refund is available for cancellations made before March 4th.

Because spaces are limited, late cancellations can prevent others from joining and may impact our ability to fairly compensate our trainers. 

Community guidelines
We are committed to creating a respectful, inclusive, and supportive learning environment. Disrespect, harassment, or discrimination of any kind will not be tolerated.
