In this 8-week course, you will explore the craft of longform improv — built on grounded, authentic
two-person scenes inside of an emotionally sound base reality. That means making the who, what, and where of the scene true and playing it real. Ensemble in improv is created with intuitive
scene edits and fun support work like tag outs and walk-ons. Learn to start playing with premise, discover your character range, be courageous in your scene initiations, calibrate your editing, take the struggle out of revisiting
comedic beats, and find the joy in improv. Led by instructor
Rachel Michaela.
