About the Event
An improv workshop about trust, balance, and finding the truth in every moment
To connect deeply with an audience, performers must first connect with themselves and each other. Trusting in the process, in your scene partners, and in your own instincts, is the foundation of this connection.
In this workshop, we will explore how trust can be cultivated through intentional listening, physical awareness, and emotional safety - three elements that we believe are cornerstones of authentic performance. Beyond the familiar tool of “Yes, and”, we'll explore what it means to truly rely on and support one another, both onstage and off.
Exercises will utilise movement, embracing stillness, discussion, and scene work. We'll touch on practices of consent and boundaries, particularly for scenes involving intimacy and vulnerability.
There will be a 30-minute break partway through the afternoon. We ask that you bring a water bottle and a notebook. We also ask that you wear clothing that you feel comfortable moving in.
About Burger & Briggs
Burger & Briggs is an improvisational theatre duo whose work lives between emotion, movement, and play.
Made up of Helen Burger (she/they) and D'Arcy Briggs (he/they), the two first met as students in Paper Street Theatre's Masterclass program. Their backgrounds in dance, production, and improvisational theatre informs a practice that is both grounded and fluid, shaped by the room, the moment, and the connection between performers and audience.
They have performed at Paper Street Theatre's Improv Festival, Impulse Theatre's Peek Festival, Theatre Skam's Skampede Festival, and many other events in the region.
At its core, the work of Burger & Briggs is an invitation: to find the truth in every moment.
