Improvisation Group

[loveshovel]

Hello forumites,

I live in ED and I am thinking about starting up an improvisation group for adults, and I was wondering if there is any interest at all? It would basically be learning and playing theatre games, improvising scenes and learning how to be spontaneous. Think 'Whose Line Is It Anyway?'-ish. It would mostly be just for fun, but if people were really enjoying it and a solid group formed, we could potentially start performing in fringe venues. But I'll stop now before I get ahead of myself! I'm a freelance theatre practitioner and I have run a group like this before when I lived in York.

Further to expressions of interest, could anyone suggest a suitable venue that doesn't cost a fortune to hire?

Thanks guys.

I tried to be spontaneous once but it didn't work.

Sounds like it could be fun.

I have no experience in acting/improvising etc but would be willing to give it a go.

Good stuff. Would love to contribute. May know a venue too which I'm thinking is cheap but haven't got the exact price to hand.

Please put me on your list or thread etc...
