MAURA – The White Space
A story is not Just what we play on stage. It’s also what arises in the imagination of the audience — in the pauses, the gaps, the silence. The white space is where anything can still happen.

In this workshop, we will explore the idea of the white space: the unsaid that invites the audience to complete the meaning, to write the story with us

MAURA – Songs for Dummies
Improvised songs are not about perfection. They’re about connection. They’re about standing in front of an audience and saying: “This is me” .

The magic happens when you allow yourself to feel and to share how you feel with the audience. So whether you sing in the shower, hum in the car, or have never sung a note in your life...you're in the right place.

MAURA – Jugglers
When we are on stage, as improvisers, we can often feel overwhelmed by everything we have to keep under control at the same time: the thread of the story,  character's consistency, stage space, emotional coherence, relationships, the reaction of the audience, the rules of the format... All of this together can become stressful. The JUGGLERS workshop invites us to turn this stress into playfulness and lightness. Like a juggler, we will enjoy the flow, trust the group and embrace the fun of ' dropping the ball'

SMORFIA

What if your dreams could come to life on stage?
SMORFIA – Live Your Dreams is a one-of-a-kind improvised show inspired by the mysterious charm of the Neapolitan Smorfia – the ancient tradition that links numbers to dreams.

Here's how it works: random numbers from the Smorfia are drawn during the show. For each number, we ask you, the audience, to share a dream – real, surreal, funny, or bizarre. Then, right before your eyes, a team of talented improvisers brings those dreams to life through original, unscripted scenes full of humor, emotion, and surprise.

All shows are FREE this year for the entire evening.

THE EXTRA

After a long career in the film industry, we're hosting a tribute interview with this actor or actress who has always played roles as EXTRAs or supporting actors in films. We'll be showing scenes from the films they've appeared in, based on titles and genres contributed by the audience. In these scenes, our beloved extra will appear for a few seconds (with or without text). Scenes from the films will always alternate with the interview in the present.

We are meeting in the courtyard of Institute St-Boniface Parnasse, where we will be shuffled and assigned a room. Check getting around in Brussels for more info on the public transport options!

MAURA – The White Space
A story is not Just what we play on stage. It’s also what arises in the imagination of the audience — in the pauses, the gaps, the silence. The white space is where anything can still happen.

In this workshop, we will explore the idea of the white space: the unsaid that invites the audience to complete the meaning, to write the story with us

We’ll explore different options for strong scene starts, and how to confidently end. You’ll leave with a toolkit of ideas and options to inspire, expand and strengthen your improv.

Simplify the challenge of performing in large ensembles and make every voice clear. This workshop shows how to coordinate focus so even sixty people can share a stage with ease.

PIERPAOLO - All Strings Attached (FULL DAY!)
This is a format we developed with the Advanced students of Impro Brussels in the past year. It’s all about connection which is represented by actual strings (scarves and such) tying the characters together, or untying them; blurring the line between real and imaginary; and L.O.V.E. (Lots Of Violent Emotions)

We are meeting in the courtyard of Institute St-Boniface Parnasse, where we will be shuffled and assigned a room. Check getting around in Brussels for more info on the public transport options!

PRETTY FLOWER

When you meet a stranger, have you ever wondered what they are really like? What’s their journey, their dreams, their delusions, their past? If you could break the wall that separates you from them, what would you see? Would you like them?
