French-English Improv Workshop

In collaboration with the French improv group Pool d’Impro du Poly (PIP), The Catalyst organised a day-long bilingual improv workshop with aims to increase collaboration between university theatre groups.

The workshop, held on the 21st May 2017 on EPFL campus, welcomed members of the PIP (http://www.pipimpro.com/), L’HeiDi (https://www.facebook.com/LHeiDi-1152420284871794/) and The Catalyst (http://thecatalyst.ch/) to expand their skill set in improvisational theatre. In total 16 people were in attendance.

The organisers would like to thank again the three leads, Robin Nigon, Mark Venning-Slater and Charles Mullon, for hosting sessions on the respective themes of, intra-group dynamics, scene work and character work. They were all very well received!

Thanks also to the attendees for their enthusiastic participation, and delicious contributions to the pot-luck lunch.

A similar collaborative event will be held during July’s Wednesday drop-ins, which are to be lead by Elliott. To express interest in this, or future workshops, do contact Elliott or The Catalyst at: thecatalyst@thecatalyst.ch

Thank you again and until next time!

Elliott and Robin
