Jo McGinley: Going Long, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Improvisational comedy has exploded over the last several decades. But the short, game-based version of improv-as seen on shows like Whose Line Is It Anyway? -is of little help when it comes to successfully pulling off long-form improvisation. Long-form provides exciting new challenges and opportunities for improvisational performers that go beyond comedy. It demands an expanded skill set, careful preparation, and genuine courage.
Drawing on author Jo McGinley's more than thirty years of experience onstage and in the classroom, Going Long provides a clear and practical framework for both beginning and experienced improvisers. It includes mental exercises specifically developed for long-form work, best practices for rehearsals and collaboration, techniques for connecting with the audience, tips on crafting stories within specific genres, and principles for making in-the-moment decisions that support an overarching narrative.
