Giving and Receiving Feedback
with Rachel Austin
CANCELLED FOR NOW

Have you ever received feedback in an improv scene or in a show that you just weren’t sure what to do with? Or you completely disagreed with? In this workshop, using the Emotional Intelligence model, to finesse this super important skill – giving/receiving feedback.

The first half will be focused on receiving feedback from a director type roll, workshopping how do you receive feedback when: you disagree with the director; it’s a trouble area for you and you’ve heard the feedback before; you want feedback and didn’t get it.

The second half will focus on troupe/duo dynamics and giving/receiving feedback to each other. There will be scenework but this workshop is more focused on the relationships/emotions underneath the art we do, and making sure those things don’t get in the way of the good stuff.
