SUMMARY:Acting Techniques for Improvisers with Toby Yount
DESCRIPTION:What to learn acting techniques to level up your improv? Want to learn improv techniques to help your script analyisis and your acting? In this workshop we plan to do both.\n\n\n\nWhat to learn acting techniques to level up your improv? Want to learn improv techniques to help your script analysis and your acting? In this workshop we plan to do both. \n\n\n \n\n\nAnytime you are on stage you are doing some form of acting whether scripted or unscripted\, playing close to yourself or a larger than life character you are acting. I will guide you through exercises that help you find your want in a scene\, keep your characters believable\, explore subtext\, and staying engaged and present with your scene partner. When we get to the script analysis section of the workshop I will be primarily be using Richard Brestoff and Uta Hagen acting principles. If any of this sounds like something you love come on by and take this workshop! For this workshop I will say you will need at least one year of improv or acting training and/or performance experience to get the most out of this.\n\n\n \n\n\nInstructor: Toby Yount (They/He) is an actor/improviser from Denver\, Colorado. Toby blends over a decade of improv experience and training from Bovine Theater\, Annoyance\, and IO in Chicago\, with an MFA in Acting from Savannah College Art of Design. Toby uses their acting-improv fusion techniques to create absurd and grounded characters – often at the same time. In addition to winning Season 7 of Denver’s Next Improv Star at the Bovine Theater\, they have performed in Bad Play Done Terribly\, does a solo improv show Toybox\, and are proud to be the second half of the Denver-grown improv duo Chocolate Thunder and Vanilla Lightning. Toby has also worked as a professional actor for companies such as Phamaly Theater Company\, Curious Theater Company\, and toured internationally as a performer for the True Colors Festival in Japan and written his own one man show SIlicon Soul that he performed in the Denver Fringe Festival. Through following his dreams and aspirations of becoming a professional voice actor\, actor\, writer\, and comedian\, Toby has discovered a passion for teaching improv that they’d be honored to share with you all.

SUMMARY:Starting the Scene with Paul Ronjak
DESCRIPTION:Ever notice how the first 30 seconds of a scene basically decide whether it flies or dies?\n\nThis workshop is all about starts. Not game\, not edits\, not callbacks — just the messy\, electric moment where two people step out and build something from nothing. \n\nWe’ll slow way down and live in the first beat of a scene. How do you establish a relationship that matters? How do you make a specific choice when your brain is screaming “say anything”? We’ll run scenes\, stop them early\, rewind\, try again\, and dig into what’s actually happening in those opening moments. \n\nGood for anyone doing long form who wants their scene work to feel less like a coin flip! \nPaul Ronjak discovered improv in 2018 and never looked back. Since then he has trained at The KC Improv Company\, The Annoyance Theatre\, The iO Theater\, and RISE Comedy. He has performed at festivals like Red Rocks Improv Festival and RISE Comedy Fest\, blending a background in short-form games with grounded\, character-driven long-form scene work.\n\nAs a teacher and coach\, Paul believes the best improv happens at the intersection of fun\, discovery\, and self-care. They encourage students to trust their instincts\, follow what delights them\, and create scenes that are honest. Whether coaching seasoned players or introducing newcomers to the stage\, he is passionate about fostering an inclusive\, supportive environment where improvisers can take risks and grow.

SUMMARY:Mockumentary Now!
DESCRIPTION:“Mockumentary Now! — where the cameras are invisible\, the stakes are high\, and absolutely everything is made up on the spot.\nThis long-form improv show follows seasoned comedians as they attempt to piece together a documentary live on stage — without a script\, but with plenty of hot takes and unexpected twists. Each show starts with an audience suggestion for a totally made-up\, upcoming fictional event (think: the town’s first-ever squirrel mayor election or Waterpark Grand Opening). From there\, characters spill their deepest\, weirdest  inner thoughts in confessionals\, all while preparing for the big day — and you’re the unseen camera crew capturing it all. \nA staple of the Denver comedy scene since 2022\, Mockumentary Now! performs every 3rd Saturday at 8pm at RISE Comedy — don’t miss your chance to see a documentary that will never win an Oscar… but just might steal your heart. Because the best documentaries…are the ones that shouldn’t exist.”
