Character - Based Improvisation
An intensive course for actors and directors to learn Character-Based Improvisation, a super long form approach to creating characters for stage and screen.
What to expect from the course: The Character-Based Improvisation Workshop is an intensive five-day experience! It has two strands: Actors create unique, three-dimensional characters, building them over several days through multiple improvisations – while directors have that all-important overview and access to all the Character-Based Improvisation tools within the process.
The improvisations become more layered and complex, demonstrating the potential for intense drama outcomes. These tools can be put to use straight away, whether to build a drama from scratch or to enhance ongoing scripted work. The CBI Process offers a refreshing and innovative pathway for creating characters.

Many of Blanche’s courses are in comedic improvisation, this course is an acting and directing course…like, for serious acting! There will likely be funny moments, but this course is about creating the kinds of characters you might see walking around your neighbourhood.
