 #4 - MATT DONNELLY: SLING SHOT HAROLD - This class re-examines the principles of the original Harold, and builds a new form that advances those principles in a more modern and faster form. This class will cover the Greeks: Seven Pillars of Art as a basic form/piece vocabulary so that students can examine their performance pieces with the same articulate depth they examine their scene work. Further, students will learn how to be guiltlessly aggressive as a group and how to attain Speed!- a run of rapid fire scenes that end a performance piece rather than shoe-horning all connections into one closer scene.
Matt Donnelly is currently an instructor at the People's Improv Theatre in New York where he teaches level 3- Intro to performance improvisation as well as Master Classes in La Ronde and Mosaic. He co-created the Neutrino Video Projects, which appeared at the HBO US Comedy Arts Festival and has been franchised to 11 other cities around the world.

#7 - MATT DONNELLY: SCENE WORK "PRO TOOLS" - In this class students will learn to add a wealth of information to their scenes, as to not only enrich the accomplishing of the scene but also inspire other scenes through the use of History, Philosophy, and Metaphor. Advanced Game Theory will also be covered in this class. Students will learn to look at comedic agreements through theatrical terms and how to combine the best of both worlds seamlessly into their work. Students will learn to create and cater to an emotional hook at the top of their scenes and how to attach their improv technique to "the hook". Students will learn heightening through identifying the flaw of their characters they portray rather than "writing in their heads". See Matt's bio under Class #4"
