Meisner Technique is an acting technique & brilliant for really connecting during our interactions; recognising behaviour & their effects.

Meisner Technique is an acting technique which is brilliant for really connecting to your scene partners... At Impro(ve) we find it useful for our real world interactions; in business with speaking to clients, understanding how others are feeling in the the moment, rapport, recognising other peoples behaviours and how they affect us.

Impro(ve) and MonkeyHeads use it in our Improvisations and as a key element of our training and performances.

Come and find out why...

We will look at Meisner Technique from the point of view of the improviser, who uses the technique differently to actors. This session will also be helpful for non-performers who are interested in boosting their communication skills.

We’ll Play… but in a different way to usual.

Objectives – What you’ll walk out with:

A new frame to look at your interactions and an understanding of how your impulsive behaviour affects your partner (others) and vice-versa.

Who should come to this? Anyone who wants to:

  • Become more aware of how impulses work and how to make use of them
  • Allow their partner's behaviour to become a constant ‘Offer Machine’

We’ll look at Meisner Repetition, observing & responding, listening & responding and how this works with an audience in the room... but also how it is helpful in the real world.

What's not to like. Fun should be hard work... But hard work should be fun.
