Event Details

Level: Intermediate

Improvised rapping is one of the things improvisers find most terrifying. We’re often taught in musical improv to “not worry about rhyming, because it’s hard”.

This course will help you turn that fear into joyous fun, and give you the confidence and ability to rhyme for minutes on end!

Through video demonstrations, interactive exercises, writing prompts, fun rhyming games and lyrical obstacle courses, this course will tear down the barriers of improvised rap. By the end of these four weeks, you will have learned a variety of simple and powerful techniques to successfully rap every single freestyle with confidence and charisma.

This course will also take you beyond the basic structures of setting up and landing rhymes. You’ll explore different flows, different rhyme schemes, and techniques to weave narrative arcs and emotional punches into your freestyles.

Min. participants 6, max. participants 10. If we have to cancel the event due to low numbers, we will do this with 24 hours notice.

This intermediate super-elective runs four Tuesdays 11th May – 1st June 7 – 9.30 pm BST

Intermediate (3/6 months+) These classes will be opportunities to add tools to your growing toolbox. Normally these classes will expect players to be confident playing scenes. These classes will provide practice and specific new skills. 

NB: Our electives frequently sell out, but do not despair if this class has. You have not missed your shot. If enough people join the waiting list, we are often able to put the same class on a few days after or in parallel. So if you were excited, join up and we will be in touch.

Closed captioning is available in all of our classes and courses. If you need any information on how to access this in zoom, please contact classes@thenurserytheatre.com
