Showstopper Weekend of Women
Sat 9 Sep 2023 10:00 AM - Sun 10 Sep 2023 5:00 PM
Umbrella Rooms, WC2H 8EH
Description
A weekend of improvising musicals exclusively for women.
Come and work with Showstopper's longest-serving female members, including Pippa Evans, Ali James and Sue Harrison, exploring the joys of creating musicals in an all-female environment (although one of our male musicians may be involved purely as an accompanist).
We will investigate :
- song and scene creation
- how to deal with gender stereotypes we are often given
- how to break the gender stereotypes we put on ourselves
- space work - claiming the stage
- challenges we find as women in the world of improvisation
To take this course you should already have a basic understanding of musical improvisation, either through taking a previous Showstopper course or performing regularly in a musical improvisation group.
This course is limited to 14 participants.
When : September 9-10, 2023
What Hour: 10.30am - 5pm
Where : Umbrella Rooms, Covent Garden, London WC2H 8EH
