SUMMARY:Laughtrack Theater Presents...Requisite Octopus Debut Show!
DESCRIPTION:LAUGHTRACK THEATER COMPANY CELEBRATES GRADUATION OF NEWEST ADVANCED CLASS WITH ARTS DISTRICT IMPROV COMEDY SHOW SAT JULY 26Chinatown\, HONOLULU – After many months of intensive study and a lot of laughs\, Laughtrack Theater Company’s latest batch of graduates will make their debut as the improv group\, Requisite Octopus. In addition to completing the company’s three-level curriculum\, this group of performers was also fortunate to study with professional improvisers from Second City Chicago in a series of recent workshops. \nAll graduates of the Laughtrack Theater Company program are offered the chance to perform publicly in a professionally produced comedy show upon completion. Founded by Kim Potter and Shannon Winpenny in 2008\, Laughtrack has since graduated over a dozen advanced classes. Winpenny is a veteran of the Chicago improv community\, having spent ten years there performing with prestigious improv houses such as iO (formerly Improv Olympic) and Second City. \nVeteran improv groups Leg Full of Soup and Aftermath with Special Guest will also be performing for the three-part show featuring new group Requisite Octopus. The show will take place Saturday\, July 26 at 7:30 p.m. (doors open at 7 p.m.) at Laughtrack at The Creative\, 1116 Smith Street. Tickets are $10 at the door. \nLaughtrack Theater Company is Hawaii’s only theater company dedicated exclusively to teaching and performing the art of long-form improvisational comedy. \nVenue info:\nLaughtrack Theater at the Creative\n1116 Smith Street (across from Little Village restaurant) \nDoors: 7pm\nShow: 7:30pm\nAdmission: $10 \nBar by BREW HAHA \nGroup Bio: \nRequisite Octopus. Spanning a range of emotions from downright mad to wily and smart this improv troupe brings a diverse group of relatively analytical individuals together on stage. The five arms of this group came together at laughtrack theater. Sitting looking at each other on that first day we all said shoot (probably didn’t say something so clean) what do we have in common? Then it became clear – we are all hung up on detail and analysis! Wow that does not sound funny – but maybe we are! The base of our interaction is influenced by our backgrounds in science\, finance\, and cartography and our limited experiences in theater and comedy. We take ourselves very seriously as we expect you will.

Throughout the show we continue to return to the group scene as well as break off from it to explore characters. The center of the flower is the Group Scene and the pedals are the exploratory Two Person Scenes. It’s a great form for a group that is looking for another option than the Harold. \nABOUT PATRICK-\nPatrick studied and performed at Second City and IO in Chicago before moving to Los Angeles where he performs at IO West with the House Harold team Tub Step.

SUMMARY:One day Improv Workshop w/ Improv Olympic Founding Member Mark Beltzman
DESCRIPTION:Mark Beltzman is coming back to Oahu!  We got A LOT of great feedback from his last workshops and we are SUPER excited to welcome him back to the islands! \nThe ART OF ALLOWING IMPROV WORKSHOP is for the ensemble actor and improvisor who desires to cultivate the ability to flawlessly and spontaneously create magic on stage and in life. “IT” comes from a place of joy and connection to one’s source intuition\, and is attained by giving yourself to the art form through LISTENING rather than thinking\, from ALLOWING rather than forcing\, from being FULLY PRESENT in the moment and FOCUSING on CONNECTION with your partner and your environment. You will understand why making your partner look good makes you in turn look twice as good and makes the work flow. Ultimately\, you will understand that this is how ensemble is created. \nThis workshop will focus on scene work. You will learn to develop tools to let scenes emerge organically\, including: \ncultivating a heightened sense of listening\ncultivating a heightened sense of awareness of the scene around you\, i.e. environment\, textures\, emotions\, body languages\, sounds\, etc.\nlearning the game within the scene\nmaking your partner look good\nfinding the joy in the exploration\ngetting out of your own way to allow creativity to flow\nunderstanding that the true magic lies in the synchronicity of you\, your partner and the audience all discovering a point of focus at the same time \nABOUT THE INSTRUCTOR:\nMark Beltzman has been acting\, writing and directing since 1981. He was a founding member of Improv Olympic in Chicago and of the legendary group\, Barons Barracudas. Mark has worked and directed at the famed Second City in Chicago. He directed many improvisational and theatrical productions at Second City in Chicago and Los Angeles\, including the Second City Alumni Jam. He was also instructor/director at The Second City Training Center\, Improv Olympic West and the Upfront Comedy Showcase as well as all over the UK\, London\, Brighton and Bristol. Mark has also acquired a great deal of knowledge about the creative process of producing\, writing and directing while performing in such notable proudctions as: “Mo Money\, ” “Billy Madison\,” “The Wedding Singer\, “Seinfeld\,” “Rosanne\,” “House\,” and “Pretty Little Liars” to name a few. \n“Mark Beltzman is the funniest and most talented improvisor that I have ever worked with. I have worked on stage with him at Second City\, done radio shows with him\, we did movies like “Red Heat” together\, and half a dozen episodes of “According to Jim.” Our scenes always got the biggest laughs.”– JIM BELUSHI \n“Mark Beltzman walks the walk and listens to the talk. You WILL have fun. And that’s what it’s all about!” – GEORGE WENDT \nDETAILS: \nWhere:\nZenworx – 685 Auahi St \nWhen:\nSunday August 10th \nCost:\n$60 Early Bird (good till August 1st) \n$75 Regular Class Fee \n**LIMITED SPACE!* \nClass fees will be donated to StoryU Arts – A division of The BizGym Foundation \nAbout The BizGym Foundation: \nRecipient of the 2014 Better Business Bureau Torch Award for best non-profit Hawaii\, The BizGym Foundation\, founded in 2013\, is a 501c3 non-profit organization that seeks to empower entrepreneurs with the tools and inspiration to build a strong and sustainable future.

SUMMARY:Improvaganza: WORKSHOPS!
DESCRIPTION:The Cinema Game is Jean Louis Barreault’s exercise that teaches you everything you need to know about acting (except voice). Learn to develop complementary characters\, strong needs\, powerful transitions\, subtlety\, physical awareness\, team work and create wonderful stories all in silence. 3 strangers enter a cinema with no direct communication they gradually become aware of each other and begin to interact changing each others lives dramatically. It is a simple exercise\, it’s just not easy! \nWade Jackson is New Zealand’s leading improv teacher. He has spent the last 20 years ‘mastering’ The Cinema Game and is nowhere near it. He is however able to show others the path to one of the most demanding acting exercises of all time. \nWade has a Post Graduate Diploma in Drama (University of Auckland) and has taught this workshop in Belgium\, at the Chicago Improv Festival (USA) and throughout New Zealand.
