Class Description: A one day intensive to learn a special improv form, The Glen.

Based on the structure of the play Glengarry Glen Ross, this format focuses on how characters evolve and are shaped after the introduction of a catalyst. The Glen combines a documentary opening, scene painting and a monoscene to create rich environments and give your characters plenty of opportunities to hit their game whilst supporting others. This workshop will strengthen your ability to give and accept playable gifts, play and heighten character games, and move past the initial moment. This format is created by me. And is performed by myself, Billy Merritt, Julie Brister, Sarah Claspell, Josh Simpson, and Ruha Taslimi.
