Brief Biographical Sketch:
Hi! I'm Bryan. I am currently a senior at Boston College. I am studying both History and Philosophy. Additionally I am the Director and President of My Mother's Fleabag. What's that you say? Why it is only BC's oldest comedy group, and the oldest collegiate improv troupe in the nation. Ever hear of Amy Poehler? She was in Fleabag. I know, sounds like a big deal, but it's not something to get all worked up about. I'm a fun -loving guy, and I can't wait to meet you all! Past Classes(Clicking a class title will bring you to the course's section of the corresponding course catalog)A782: Re-Inventing the Wheel (I thought they said not to do that?!): IMPROV 101 in Splash Spring 2013 (Apr. 07, 2013)
This will be an Improv crash course for beginners of all ages, regardless of prior experience. We will explain some basic Improv theory that the members of My Mother's Fleabag have learned for years. We will conduct fun and energetic warm-up exercises, teach our students "focusing" techniques, and help them with different variations of Improv comedy. In addition to this everyone will have a chance to perform. Our hope is that we can inspire our students to pursue Improv comedy in some capacity.
A783: Burning Bridges(WAIT! I thought we weren't supposed to do that either?!): Improv 201 in Splash Spring 2013 (Apr. 07, 2013)
This will be a more advanced foray into the craft of Improv comedy. We will explore both long and short-form Improv. While previous experience is not required, it is heavily recommended. The nature of this seminar is to provide a distinct improvement in comedic style and technique. For these reasons we would like to work with a smaller group.
