Spoon River...
Spoon River is a delightfully dark improv format based off the book, Spoon River Anthologies by E. L. Masters. Students in this three-session intensive will learn and play with the form, while working their character, storytelling, and monologue skills. With monologues as its core structure, Spoon River is an ideal format for online improvised play. We will explore the different approaches individuals and ensembles can make to this mostly forgotten format.
