IMPROV MIXER: Mix, Meet, Mingle, Play, Audition

Post by Merlin Works »

Merlin Works will be hosting our monthly Improv Mixer at Salvage Vanguard Theater. As usual, The Improv Mixer is intended to help improvisers make new friends and form or find troupes to rehearse and perform with. It's kinda like Speed Dating for Improvisers. This time around The Mixer will also serve as auditions for upcoming Gnap! Theater Projects Shows and Troupes.

The Mixer is open to the entire community: students, free agents, existing troupes looking for new members, coaches, or anyone who wants a free workout. At the beginning, scouts and coaches will let the group know what they are looking for. Then Shana Merlin will lead an improv warmup where everyone will get to know each other and get comfortable. Then we will be divided into groups for open scenework. It's free, it's fun, and you just might get cast in a show or set up with a group of improvisers and a coach to form a new troupe.**
Cost: FREE
Sunday Aug 28th 2pm - 4pm with Shannon McCormick
AND
Sunday October 2nd 2pm - 4pm with Aden Kirschner
At the Salvage Vanguard Theater, 2803 Manor Road


RSVP to classes@merlin-works.com or just show up!


** Attending the mixer does not guarantee you will be placed in a troupe.
