“What Comes Next?” is a game Keith Johnstone created to train improvisers to develop stories collaboratively, paying attention to the needs of their partner and the audience. It is also the question Theresa Robbins Dudeck asked Keith for years working alongside him as his biographer and literary executor. Now, just a few months after Keith’s death, Dudeck asks “What comes next?” not only in her role as the custodian of his literary archive but as a practitioner-teacher of impro. Keith, more than anyone, understood that improvisation must evolve or else languish. Dudeck believes Keith’s story is not complete: his work will evolve and continue to unleash creativity and innovation in fields within the arts and beyond for years to come. In this improvisation workshop, focusing on key techniques and tenets of Keith’s unique approach to training improvisers, participants will explore the question “What comes next?” together, weaving a fresh narrative of the power of Keith’s impro to influence how we perform in life, onstage and off.
