Kevin McDonald offers Workshop at CIC this May!



Join Kevin McDonald of the Kids in the Hall for a two day, 14 hour workshop to improve your acting and writing skills. In a group of twenty to thirty actors you will learn how to write comedy through performance, and use improv as a writing tool.

The workshop will warm up with improv games to help sharpen storytelling skills, and evolve until students are doing their own improvised scenes in small groups. Kevin will go from group to group, helping and guiding with the "writing" of each scene. Each group will then have the opportunity to present their sketch.

After getting notes, revising and presenting the scenes again, the workshop will end with the groups going away and actually finalizing their scenes. The now fully written scenes will be performed one last time for everyone.

This workshop will improve your acting and writing skills, and will teach you how both skills work in unison to create great scenes and hilarious comedy.

Date: May 5th & 6th
Time: 10am-5pm both days
Cost $300

If you are interested in signing up, please email Jared Jefferies (who set all this up) at jmjeffries2@gmail.com SUBJECT: KEVIN MCDONALD WORKSHOP

Payment must be by check made out to "Kevin McDonald." Jared will be collecting these checks before the end of April, so please be serious about committing to this rare opportunity.

Should be a lot of fun.
