The Des Moines Community Playhouse's latest Teen Theatre Workshop, Improv with Nate Jorgensen, will be held Saturday, Nov. 16, 2019, 1:00-4:00 PM. The workshop is open to all interested teens in grades 7-12. Registration is $9 per person. Registrations may be made online at dmplayhouse.com.
Within a couple of hours, through warm-up exercises, creative performance games, and basic short-form scene-work, teens will practice techniques to think quickly on their feet, be more creative, improve their storytelling skills, and work together as a team while having fun. Students will laugh until they cry with Nate Jorgensen, Waukee theatre, speech, and English teacher and comedy aficionado. For teens who love
SNL, who want to become a more responsive and creative actor, or want to get better at thinking on their feet, this is the workshop!
