Our Community Class series focuses primarily on one goal: creating a fun, no-pressure environment for people to meet, play, and form a community through the practice of improvisation! Students are welcomed, encouraged, and assisted if they wish to perform on stage, but students are never pressured or expected to perform. Instead, we place a priority on just having meaningful, weekly fun. 

Our curriculum will focus primarily on intermediate-level skills:

  • Understanding story structure
  • Learning the difference between Primary & Secondary characters
  • Using the basics of space/mime work
  • Leveraging different characters to move a story forward
  • Finding and working the relationship of the characters in any scene

OUR CLASSES ARE CAPPED AT 10 PARTICIPANTS! Fewer students = more personalized feedback and time to work.

PREREQUISITES: Participants in this class series MUST have already completed our Foundations Level Class series or an introductory class series at another theater.

Student Information

Improvisation is spontaneous. The unexpected not only CAN happen, it often DOES. Because of that, we strive to create an environment of artistic exploration and freedom in a safe and permissive atmosphere. In our studio, participants are allowed and encouraged to experiment while they learn. If we make mistakes - and we most certainly will!! - that's OK. We don’t believe that our goal is to avoid mistakes: it’s to learn from them when they occur.

Our community asks all participants & instructors to follow these simple guidelines:

* Be welcoming and kind to everyone!
* Have fun!
* Accept and celebrate differences!
* Communicate & respect boundaries in a kind way!
* Assume good intentions!
* Allow for mistakes! 👍🏼 😊

If you see something, say something. We include many opportunities to speak/share during class. If you’re uncomfortable: tell the community why or, if you prefer, speak to an instructor during a break or after class. We’re here to help you on your journey.

Please use your mouse/finger to sign below to confirm you understand and commit to these guidelines.
