  Today is a really important day for Jenny Brownstein.  It's her fist job interview and she has just so much to talk about! Of course she'll make sure to mention her amazing ability to pay attention without aderol, her experience at her summer internship (it wasn't her fault she got fired), and of of course her plans for the future (which so do not include walk of shaming down 3rd avenue).  Never know who might show up at this PR firm... Barbara Walters? Barack Obama? Jenny's mom!?  OMG! Come watch it all go down in Ali Bernstein's hilarious one-woman sketch show, J.A.P.PRADA, BAT-MITZVAHS & WHORES.... OH MY! Written by and Featuring Ali Bernstein Directed by Joe Schiappa.

Musicality and Scenework

June 1st-2nd, (Two-Day Workshop)

Using music to inspire scene work both internally and externally. Developing a musicality to your scenes as well as making up music / songs inside of your format. We will look at the concept of tempo and develop and understanding of how music can lead to unspoken agreement for greater joy and ease of play. We will be beatboxing, freestyling, listening, sharing, making noises you never thought you'd make and moving a lot.

Getting Out of Your Own Way

June 9th (One-Day Workshop)

here are a hundred things that you end up doing on stage instead of what you want to be doing. Your brain is clouded with all sorts of things that you think you are supposed to do instead of what you are inspired to do. Learn to throw all conventions to the wind and just have fun in your scene work. Learn how to pull from all your learning and find the school of thought that works for you, because it comes out of you.

Patterns in Everything

June 21st (One-Day Workshop)

Being in your head has a terrible reputation in improv circles. This workshop is all about being in your head at the top of the scene (a good thing) and then using the information to truly play out of your head for the remainder. One exercise, one technique. Adding pattern recognition to your bag of improv tricks will help you find the comedy faster no matter the form.
