Improvisational theater as a living exercise in trust and timing
Improvisational theater thrives on a vigilant ensemble, clear listening, and the willingness to turn every mistake into a new attempt. This principle shapes the course in Potsdam: Participants work on the basics of spontaneous play and learn to create stories together. The methods trace back to Keith Johnstone and Viola Spolin and connect to an international practice of improvisation that is based on reaction, acceptance, and shared storytelling.

The KuZe as an appropriate place for closeness and concentration
The Student Cultural Center KuZe at Hermann-Elflein-Str. 10 provides the right atmosphere for an improvisational course: open, urban, close to the audience, and well-connected. The building is located in Potsdam city center, accessible by tram and bus lines via Luisenplatz or Dortustraße, and has established itself as a cultural venue for theater and encounter.
