Comedic Heightening

Class Description:

A three week class on heightening in scenes. We'll discuss thinking of the scene as having MUSIC and LYRICS. We'll talk about emotional intensity. We'll talk about seeing a scene as OPPOSITES. And we'll learn to look for ACTIONS and REACTIONS to repeat. It's a wee bit heady but we will also get a lot of reps to simplify these concepts.

We are in classroom D (upstairs) at Meindl which means this particular class is not in an accessible space.
