Workshop:  "Playfulness, misbehaving and taking initiative"

Wolves learn to hunt by playing. Apes learn their social structure through playful status interaction. Human children take risks and learn languages, and technical skills faster than most adults because they are not glued to the rules. If we allow ourselves to break the rules we get to our own unique way of learning, and creating. Why then are most improvisers so intent on "getting" and sticking to the rules?

The workshop will be between 14:30 - 17:00.

You can participate in the workshop if you have followed at least one course of improvisation. It will be in english. 

Costs of the workshop are 40 euro, including a free ticket for the show in the evening (only for personal use). Signing up via: theatersportdenhaag@gmail.com
