Warwick Improvised Theatre Society (WITS) is a new society to join the Warwick drama scene. We provide a platform for the training, performance and practice of improvised theatre.

 

We always emphasise that improvisation is a skill that can be taught. A professional introductory workshop will be held on Wednesday 20th October where you will be taught from scratch all you need to know about improv basics by Sean McCann (improvisation teacher at UK drama schools and a touring improviser himself!) 

 

WITS will also provide you with fortnightly training sessions to explore the various ideas behind improvisation. We will also hold workshops in specific improv skills such as musical and longform improvisation. Those interested or with previous training and experience can join the WITS troupe who will compete against improvisation societies at other universities.

 

The spontaneous aspect of improvisation makes this skill extremely desirable and can actually improve your confidence. So if you were thinking that this society is only for theatre students think again, or better yet, join us and let the training make you stand out from the crowd.

 

WITS membership is fantastic value for money. It provides you with free admission to our professional introductory workshop as well as free entry to subsequent training sessions. Join now to receive further details and sign up information for our first workshop.
