Madrid_Workshop. Improv and Presentation: How Drama can Help in Your Professional Life

Improvisation is a powerful tool in tackling many issues that you will have to confront in your professional as well as day-to-day life. Presentation and public speaking skills, body language, stage presence, creativity, teamwork and tone and voice are just a few aspects that you train in Improvisation. Furthermore, it is a fun and energetic activity that takes you out of your comfort zone, will challenge your own personal boundaries and have you experience other IE members in an environment different from any other on-campus context. In this one hour workshop, we will take you through different fun and dynamic exercises of different fields surrounding improvisation that will make you more confident in your presentation skills and more comfortable in public situations. 

The IE Drama Club meets once a week (Wednesdays 7-9:30 pm) to do mainly improvisation, but also theatrical exercises and scene-work. The sessions are always great fun and a welcome escape from the otherwise stressful, academic and professional IE environment. Our members who come from all different backgrounds and programs are able to bring in their own ideas and define for themselves what they want to work on specifically. Everyone is welcome and no previous experience is needed!
