Improvisation, storytelling and energizing physicality.

Appropriate for folks 16+ from all backgrounds and experience levels.

A Saturday afternoon to kick off the spring!

Nakai Theatre’s artistic director Jacob Zimmer shares approaches from improvisation and co-creation in theatre, dance and leadership development to open you up and expand your ability to collaborate. Join us for a fun and invigorating weekend workshop.

Cost: $40

Beginning with Improv. Play energize our bodies, opens us to surprise and humour, games stretch our spontaneity and connect us to each other.

Embodied Play. Sometimes we get stuck in our heads. Experience how physicality and our senses can open new possibilities in storytelling, improvisation and living.

Creating through Play. Playing together to create new games and shared stories. Collaborating and creation takes practice, and that practice can be fun.

There will be breaks for food.

There will be physical activity and participation required. Adjustments to individual needs will be accommodated.

If cost is the only barrier, please email jacob@nakaitheatre.com to discuss options.

Offered with the support of @YAC Residency and the ongoing Yukon Arts Operating Fund, Yukon Lotteries and the Canada Council for the Arts.
