Emma Maguire

Improv for performers who aren’t improvisers, this is an introduction to using improv as a tool to create scripted work. Bring an idea for a show or performance, and practise fleshing it out using improv techniques, games, and play activities. Take your spark of inspiration and grow it into a fully realised concept, using improv to build a world, provide backstory, and add complexity to relationships.

A director and writer, Emma Maguire specialises in mixed-media performance and enjoys devising work from scratch. Though perhaps not strictly an improviser, she likes to utilise improvisational techniques in her work.
