About
Ever wondered if you could make up music on the spot for improv? It’s easier than you think! This class is for musicians that have never played for improv or those with a few shows under their belt that are looking to deepen their skills. We’ll cover the basics of accompanying musical improv and then jump into improvising songs with TBD performers. A piano will be provided, but musicians are encouraged to bring whatever instrument they are most comfortable with.
Instructor
Nathaniel Stevens graduated from BW with a theatre major and worked at Florida Studio Theatre as their literary manager where he began playing music for short form improv. He joined TBD as a musician in 2016 and began acting with the troupe in 2017. His joint experience as both musician and actor gives him a unique perspective on how to effectively accompany improv.
