How To Do Nothing - Ollie Rasini - Saturday 20/12/2025 17:30-20:30
We learn to do a lot of things in improv, but sometimes the best thing is just to stop doing and start being fully present in our beautiful bodies. In the same way, when constructing improv scenes, we end up thinking very hard about storyline, narrative, or relationship; if we stop trying so hard and focus instead on fully inhabiting our physical selves in a curious and playful way, it turns out that stories just magically pop up.
We will be using music, movement, and relaxation to try to turn off the judging brain and just be with each other onstage for a little bit. We will break down our being onstage into smaller, more manageable elements so as to work back up to doing scenes with a new awareness. So get into some comfortable clothes, take off your shoes, come into the space together and discover the beauty of doing nothing.
