LA Get Down: On the Spot Poetic Thoughts: The Art of Improvised Poetry

Does your mic work need work? Looking to gain more confidence and creativity when speaking candidly to any audience, anywhere? Or just trying to find a way to break out of that creative slump and change the way you approach performance?
In this creative two hour workshop, seasoned spoken word poet and teaching artist Soul Stuf will guide you through his carefully crafted process of poetic improvisation and show you how he "freestyles with finesse" through his stage banter, audience participation, and as an exercise in and of itself. In this pop-up workshop, you can expect some light writing and introspection / a detailed lecture on what "improv" is and how to incorporate it both on and off-stage / some group exercises to help bolster innate ingenuity / fundamentals on "improvising a poem in the moment / and personalized performance feedback for those who want to explore the craft more in depth. 
 Join your fellow patrons of play for a highly instructive and hands-on session and you too will leave with a bigger and better toolkit for making things up like a pro!
