Dave Razowsky Workshop: The Beat Goes On

The Beat Goes On Join us if you've ever wondered how two or three actors can play out a 40-minute set in one continuous location. Discover how awareness and "present-ness" keeps a scene going while you were thinking it was "finished." By being mindful and aware you can keep playing a scene indefinitely, one that's intriguing, full and excitingand that's a good thing! A scene only ends when you think it does. So stop thinking, start feeling and keep going!

David Razowsky is one of the top teachers of theatrical improvisation and acting. He has been called "the guru of improvisation, an improviser's improviser," who connects the mindfulness of Buddhism with improvisation's core principals of being in the moment, taking care of your partner, and groundedness. In his 25-year improvisation career David has worked with The Second City, iO West, The Steppenwolf Theatre Company, as a consultant to Dreamworks, BBC's Whose Line Is It Anyway, and Amsterdam's Boom Chicago Theatre. He was Artistic Director of The Second City Training Center Los Angeles, has been honored with an INNY award for Best Improv Coach, and is adjunct faculty in the California State University system. He has been a featured performer and lecturer at the Chicago Improv Festival, The San Francisco Improv Festival, the Vancouver Improv Festival, and The Kennedy Center. David continues to act and direct professionally in Los Angeles, and is overjoyed at the opportunity to work with the great Santa Cruz improv community!
