The Improv Collaborative

12/02/2024

"Beginning Improv - The Improv Sampler" starts January 14. It is an adventurous tour of the two different forms of improv: short and long form. Short form is a game format where, within a structure, comedic antics ensue. The show Whose Line is it Anyway? is short form. Long form is scenic and narrative. It relates improv to the real world. In addition to exercises, games and two performances, the class leans toward developing comradery. When we trust and feel supported by our fellow players, we are more creative. It's an excellent way to have fun, make friends and explore the unknown. Comedy is a side affect, not a goal. It happens organically!

Geared to the newcomer, this class introduces the two main forms of improv: the short-form games as seen in Whose Line is it Anyway and long form – scene exploration.
