Fun and friendly introduction to the world making things up
Unlock your ideas, boost your confidence and get more play into your life with this 8-week introduction to improv. Experienced teacher Carla will guide beginners through the fundamentals. We'll be playing games, learning improv techniques and building stories together, all in a safe, supportive environment. You'll also receive weekly notes so that you can revise the activities from class.
Complete beginners are welcome.
You don’t need any drama, acting, comedy or improv experience.
We're running an advanced class in patterns and game. Using skills based on sketch and comedy, you'll learn how to recognise patterns in scenes to create improvised sketches. You'll learn about heightening, rule of three, and how to find and play the 'game of the scene'.
