A regular class for professional actors to come together and keep their brains and bodies in tip top imaginative order. "This workshop was absolutely brilliant! Claire is so inspiring. I learnt so much and the session was great fun! She taught us some great exercises, equipping us with some empowering tools to create character & work for ourselves. I can't recommend Claire & her workshop enough!" Lousie Bailey "Impro Gym is a brilliant way to keep an actor's cogs well oiled!" Meera Kumar More and more established companies, as well as a multitude of dedicated theatre makers, are putting devised work at the heart of new productions. And they need actors who understand the process and are prepared for the rigours of this kind of work. This workshop helps prepare actors for working in this free, imaginative, collaborative and exciting discipline. We'll look at exercises to unlock the imagination and explore some techniques that act as great starting points for creating your own devised work. Having the tools to work without the security of a script or known end point is an important part of every actor's arsenal.

"The best workshop I have attended. I learnt so much whilst enjoying myself and gaining knowledge in a supportive & positive environment." "In amongst the flurry of role hunting, auditions and nail biting excitement, your class immerses the actor in the skill and enjoyment of acting in a safe, creative environment. The calm in amongst the storms. Thanks." "Claire is an inspiring workshop leader. Her sessions are all about the actor & what we can create ourselves. She generates a safe and creative working environment, which allows you to unlock your imagination and run free."
