This course will include: • Warm ups and disposable scenes • Two and three person scenes with feedback • Running simple formats with notes focused on scene work About The Instructor: John Gerhardt caught the acting bug in 2008 just before he finished high school and it wasn’t long after that he joined Take One, an improv comedy troupe, spending the last 12 years touring with them across the midwest performing at comic, anime, and other pop-culture conventions. In John’s pursuit of performance, he has trained with OKC Improv, ComedySportz Dallas, and with coaches from The Second City, iO Theater, and most recently, Stomping Ground. When he isn’t taking the stage or stepping behind a camera, John tends bar professionally at work and personally for his friends, taking joy in cultivating an experience for every audience he’s given.
