This course is IMPROV ACTING for Deaf, hard of hearing, and All.

Description: Improv has always been an exciting practice for actors to advance their skills, self-confidence and their ability to think on their feet. With SHOWAbility celebrating the 30th anniversary of the signing of ADA, we decided to not only make this opportunity available to everyone virtually, but also with a focus on those who are deaf and hard of hearing (an ASL interpreter will be available as well for others who want to attend). In this class attendees will learn the basic tools, rules, and philosophy of improv through games, drills, and virtual scenes… All through the computer scene! Be sure to sign up! We’d love to see you. 

Our Instructor is for this is Martha Anger
