3 For All Weekend Intensive

Post by kaci_beeler »

This is HUGE, folks! Improv stars 3 FOR ALL are coming to Austin at the end of February for just one weekend!

Their Friday night show is sure to be stellar, we're getting the full show package this time, two unforgettable acts of improv genius with an intermission. We're charging $15 for a show that normally costs upwards of $25/ticket in San Francisco and sells out to hundreds of people. Their group mind, commitment to character and storytelling, and their unique and often quirky acting style is something that should not be missed. (Seriously, their old world film acting style and 20+ years each improvising together alone makes for a hell of a group mind.)

AND for anyone who wants to bring their own improv up by several notches, we've got the best weekend improv intensive money can buy with Rafe, Stephen, and Tim all teaching for 10 immersive, amazing hours! This workshop will explore both longform (narrative) and shortform (scenes) improv, 3 For All-style!

You’ll work on:
-commitment to character and narrative
-physicality (characters, action, wheres, space objects)
-acting and committing to the emotions of the moment
-the role of specificity, immediacy and prompting each other to do things (sometimes called “pimping”)
-starting in the middle, jumping on board and implied history

All based around the extremely committed, playful, and professional core that makes up the award-winning, jaw-dropping work 3 FOR ALL does.

Earlybird intensive cost is $200 and goes up to $220 on Feb 11th.

Some quick background:
3 FOR ALL
The wildly popular trio is known for their unique blend of intensely dramatic and outrageously funny, completely improvised scenes based on audience suggestions. Their high-stakes improv has thrilled audiences since they hit the stage in 1996 and they continue to play to sold-out houses and rave audience reviews in the San Francisco Bay Area as well as Los Angeles, New York, Chicago, Austin, Atlanta, Finland and Amsterdam.

Individually, their improv expertise is highly sought after for animation inspiration and character development (DreamWorks Animation), voice acting (The Sims, and Sims 2.0, Madagascar2, Kung Fu Panda and Kung Fu Panda 2, Mars Needs Moms, Megamind), TV characters (How I Met Your Mother, Jonas LA) teaching and performing improvisation in the United States (American Conservatory Theater, Stanford University, Cirque Du Soleil) and internationally (Amsterdam, Beirut, Helsinki, Israel, Leuven, London, Paris, Saudi Arabia, Stockholm).

Individually and as the amazing ensemble 3 FOR ALL, Chase, Kearin and Orr are widely recognized as 3 of the hottest improvisers on the scene today.

I believe when they were last here in 2007 (?) 2008 (?) for a weekend intensive, it really elevated the play of everyone who took the class, right away. If you wanna get "better" at improv, you can learn a lot from these three gentlemen.

The workshop is sold out for now, but we're looking at adding some auditing slots (sitting in the back and taking notes).

If you missed out on registering for the 3 For All workshop, it's not completely hopeless. We're opening up a few auditing slots. For $50 you can observe from the back of the theater, take notes, close your eyes and imagine yourself up on stage doing the exercises - and then take all the excellent material back to your troupe or practice group to chew on for the next few months.
