Montoya Workshops

My improv workshop is meant to be taken/attended by teams that are looking to perform at a professional level (whether it be putting up their own improv show in their hometown or creating an interesting form for touring). Groups will work with me to design an improv workshop that is centered around what they all want next. Better scene work? How to put a show together? Nothing is off limits. My writing workshop uses improv as it's primary tool. I use the Second City method of generating material (improv) and work with students on refining their material. Students will learn techniques for developing strong characters, including status, point of view, and subtext. We'll also explore beats, environment, and emotional life. Depending on how much time we get, the class could generate a 30 minute sketch show to perform later!
