Hey there,

I know this email is signed by me (Laura). But I am not actually behind my desk: I am on vacation. 🏖️

You could say my hologram is speaking to you from the past:

Thanks to the wonders of scheduled sending (writing it in July and automatically sending it in August), I can share with you this mailing now!

And I think that’s pretty cool. Carrie Fisher-cool.

Scroll below to see some of the exciting things that are happening in the coming season.

Revealing our September guest: Jennifer Jordan

Learn about puppetry and improvisation

We are stoked to have Jennifer Jordan from the UK join us. She’s such a lovable and knowledgeable improviser. This is what one of her UK students said about her:

“Jennifer was SO BRILLIANT
Encouraging, organized, brought consistently awesome ideas and exercises… I’ve taken many improv courses.
She’s an outstanding teacher.”

And in September, she will teach her workshop Cardboard Creatures.

Through puppetry you learn so much for your improv. And by using simple objects you will create beautiful & surprising scenery.

The workshop will culminate in ‘Trash Town’: a simple magazine show format similar to Sesame Street.

Dates: Sat, 19 Sep 26 - Sun, 20 Sep 26
Times: 11:30 - 17:30
Location: Flock Studio – Treehouse
Teacher: Jennifer Jordan
€ 230,- for 2 days, with optional showcase

Here are the awards 🏅

Improv courses starting in September

If I would have to give the award for “best course”, I wouldn’t know which one to pick.

But I can give other awards… Like:

🧑‍🌾 The course with the most (5) company members in class

💘 The course with the fewest spots open (2)

🧛 The course inspired by the longest running Dutch improv show (20 years)

☺️ The course on our most popular time slot

🌟 The course where we had to disappoint the most people (3)

🧛 De cursus met de meeste spelers met 10+ jaar ervaring

📏 De cursus die meeste niveaus in 1 les heeft

🌿 The beginners course that is on the earliest time

🐣 The beginners course with the most teachers (2)

🌿 De beginnerscursus die als allereerste zal starten

And with the risk of sounding sales-y (but forgive me, it’s just true): the best deal you can get for any of the courses.

I secretly hope to come back from vacation with all of these filled. That would be my post-holiday dream.

Sending you love from me & my hologram,

Laura
