Improv I

Improvisation is an incredible way for students to learn important stage and life skills! Improv teaches students to focus, listen carefully, and be a good team member. In this class we'll go over improv vocabulary, techniques and games! Expect to learn to create zany characters, intricate environments and grow your imagination.

We are excited to offer this no prerequisite, guaranteed performance opportunity for students aged 8-22.

Anyone can take this class.  We will be offering Improv I and Improv II in the Winter 2024 Season and this class will help you prepare yourself for that path. 

This class will meet Thursdays from 6:45pm-8:45pm and will perform at an unticketed Exhibition on Friday, December 1. Note if you wish to take this class AND our Becoming a Triple Threat class, you may do so, however you will need to use the Manual Registration Form. See the Details section below for more information on prerequisites, class meetings, weeks off and performance times.

Whether you are a returning student or new to the team, thank you for helping us to entertain, educate, and inspire!
