Free comedy improv workshop for men held at the YMCA Scarborough as part of the BIG STRONG MAN project.
Funny Business: Comedy Improv for Scarborough Men is a comedy improv workshop running at YMCA Scarborough on Saturday 12 December, starting at 14:00. It's a session for men, and it's free to attend.
If you've never tried improv, the basic idea is that nothing is scripted. There's no lines to learn and no set scenes to follow; everything comes from the people in the room, built on the spot from suggestions and reactions. It's less about being a natural comedian and more about thinking on your feet and playing along with whatever the group throws your way. Because it's a workshop, the focus is on having a go rather than putting on a polished performance.
The session is part of the BIG STRONG MAN project, which runs across Scarborough. It's a project aimed at men, and this particular afternoon is built around comedy improv as a way to get involved. If you've ever watched a show like Whose Line Is It Anyway? and wondered what it's like on the other side of the stage, this is a chance to find out without needing any prior experience.
