Allow you to introduce yourself: Action Theater Improvisation (In-Person)

"Being creative" implies being other than who you are, when actually creativity is about being more of who you are.' -Ruth Zaporah, creator, Action Theater. Come meet more of yourself in this introduction to Action Theater improvisation. Through simple, fun exercises playing with movement, sound, and language, participants explore living in their bodies as well as their minds, mining and reveling in the multidimensional nature of being a human. Come explore radical existence in the present moment, audacious sensitivity to the self and others, and the ripe accessibility of limitless imagination! It is amazing training for performers; it is also amazing training for life. Whether you're a neophyte or an experienced improvisor, come and play!
