And that’s a wrap for a great adventure in #Iceland! This trip was beyond amazing, and we could never in our wildest dreams have expected it to be such an incredible success! From the #unscriptedtheatre #performances, to the #workshops, to building lifelong friendships, we couldn’t have asked for more! Thank you to @teja.smeja and @improving_playfully for bringing @carpedmimprov (@kolovou6 and @davidchristopherimprov ) in to work and create with such wonderful people and artists, that we now get to call colleagues and friends! Oh, and @aree2d2 , our last meal in #Reykjavík were some damn good lamb hotdogs! Until next time Iceland, which will hopefully be sooner than later!
What a night! So many incredible performances by the artists who took our #unscriptedtheatre #workshops and #intensive, The Alchemy of Two, this week! It was such a joy to see them, shine and take their maiden voyage into unscripted theatre! And then it was time for a once in a lifetime #performance of our signature show from @carpedmimprov , UNDERTONE! The night was absolute magic, with @dabbitogga providing accompaniment on guitar, and knowing all the right notes to hit and when to hit them. All three of us were playing completely out of our skin, in what was a transformational experience. Even better was sharing it with all of the witnesses in the audience, who went on the ride with us! Oh, and did I mention Yoda! We have one more day left here in #Iceland, but are already excited about where we’ll be headed to next! Stay tuned! A huge thank you to @teja.smeja and @improving_playfully for making all of this happen!

The students in our five-hour #intensive, The Alchemy of Two, grew wings and flew, as #unscriptedtheatre artists! What an absolute privilege to teach these incredible humans! Come see them perform tonight, along with our featured #performance of UNDERTONE, here in #Reykjavík, #Iceland! Ticket link in bio!
Another great day in #Iceland! The snow keeps coming and so do the good times! Maria’s From Silence to Story #unscriptedtheatre #workshop was so much fun! More great work from so many great #improvisers! Let’s see what tomorrow brings…
My Improvised Monologues workshop artists did such an amazing job creating characters that feel deeply and intensely in living in their worlds! So many brave, bold and wonderful choices, backed by such powerful commitment. Thank you for each of those beautiful monologues and placing your trust in me and the process! Chef’s kiss! Thanks also to @improving_playfully ! Also, some highlights of the day in Reykjavik.

Carpe DM is truly seizing the days here in Reykjavík. With only a few more spots left in their workshops, they are crowning their stay with a final performance of UNDERTONE on Sunday, March 1st. /carpedm-undertone (early bird price until Tuesday, Feb 24th!)
In Undertone, they explore a relationship using unscripted theatre. This isn't your typical improv show, but rather a deep moment for connection and reflection through in-the-moment presence. <3
Come and see the magic at White Lotus, Bankastræti 2! The venue is wheelchair accessible, but please let us know so we can assist you!
There are still some last spots left for Carpe DM's Masterclass workshops happening in Reykjavík next week!
Want to become a better monologist? Or on the contrary: do you want to speak less using words and be more aware of how to make silence work for your and your storytelling?
Perhaps you want to explore how to work in duos effectively?
No previous theatre experience required!
Grab the last spots here: /carpe-dm-masterclasses/
We have a FREE show coming up this Friday at 6:30 PM in downtown Reykjavík. All you need to do is to register and you're in: /e/F881f3PiSw
Undertone by CarpeDM is an unscripted dramatic piece of improv, not your standard comedy show. 🎭 After this, there will be a "classic" comedic improv jam led by the community.
