Musical Improv Workshop Series (for ages 18-180!)

Learn to love the spontaneous, the unplanned, and the surprising as we improvise entire musicals from scratch!

Through improv exercises and songful games, we’ll create songs and scenes on the fly, learn common song structures, and practice the art of spontaneity within a supportive community. In addition to being extremely fun, musical improv offers practice in teamwork, flexibility within structure, mutual support, and creative problem-solving.

How are conflicts created and resolved in song? What makes a catchy chorus? How can you use a melody to reflect emotion? How do actors decide when to burst into song? After playing with these concepts, we’ll create our very own musical, which will be unforgettable and immediately forgotten.

Facilitated by Julie Lipson and Miles Crabtree, two music therapists/performers, this class will focus on self-expression and authenticity– not perfect performances. After the 6-week class, students are invited to participate in an optional class show performed for the public.

No previous training in improv or music is required–just a willingness to participate! For ages 18+

This class runs twice this winter!
