If you have been interested in trying improv, this class will provide the opportunity in a fun and supportive environment. You will "learn by doing,” so you will be up on your feet and playing from day one–exploring short form games and improvised scenes. Discover the joy of ensemble support, and learn the basic fundamentals that will carry you through your improv journey. Under the guidance of your caring and experienced instructor, you will discover that you already have what it takes to improvise successfully both onstage and off. Returning students are welcome and encouraged to register.
