Organic Improvisation with Rick Andrews
Class Description
In this performance focused class, we'll use organic edits and scene-work techniques to create hyper fluid improvisation to surprise and elate. With a heavy focus on discovery, teamwork, and scene-work, we'll use the power of the ensemble to take our pieces and scenes to the next level. 8 weeks of class, 2 Class shows, limit 14 students. Pre-Requisite: Conservatory (Level 5 or higher).
Rick Andrews is a teacher and performer at The Magnet Theater, and has been studying, performing, and teaching improvisation since 1999. He began improvising with Improv Boston, and continued with a stint in Saint Louis, MO. He has been fortunate to learn from many improv greats, including Armando Diaz, Ed Herbstman, Joe Bill, Mark Sutton, Amy Poehler, Ian Roberts, Will Luera, Jill Bernard, and more.
Rick has taught workshops at improv festivals across the country, including the Boston Improv Festival, Baltimore Improv Festival, Black Box Atlanta, and many more. He co-produces Duofest, an annual festival of improv duos in Philly, PA. He has taught improvisation to people as old as 75 and as young as 6, and has done workshops for production companies and zoos alike.
He enjoys running, putting words on pages, thinking about the brain, and he loves improv more than anything.
