291A: Topics:Improvisation for Industry and the Arts

This course is designed to prepare students for interactions not just on stage, but in job interviews, on sales calls, in boardrooms, and in any other high-pressure environment. Emphasis will be placed on proven and transferable improvisational acting skills. Students will learn and practice effective strategies for performing short-form improvisational theatre, approaching unfamiliar situations, interacting with a variety of personalities, and thinking and speaking in the moment. The course will be highly active and include regular discussions of cross-application of skills learned.
