Improv for Actors with Paloma Nuñez is designed to help actors drop into play, deepen trust with scene partners, and uncover the magic that happens when you fully commit to the moment.
This workshop focuses on presence, active listening, and saying yes to the offers happening right in front of you. Improv isn’t about being funny or clever—it’s about getting out of your head and into your body, trusting your instincts, and letting the work breathe.
Stepping on stage without a script can feel terrifying, but Paloma will guide you toward trusting your voice, your impulses, and what you uniquely bring to the room. You’ll explore what makes improv thrilling, grounded, and joyful—and how these tools can add freedom, specificity, and depth to all of your performances.
