Club de comedia improvisada: taller de teatro y actuación para adolescentes

Through collaboration and always saying "YES" we will create hopefully amusing short scenes that will have their first performance and closing night all at the same time.

This class is perfect for you if you're looking for a fun way to hang out with other teens and create some funny stuff together. And it's perfect if you're serious about acting and want to get better at making stuff up on the spot.

It doesn't matter if you've improvised a zillion times or if you're not even sure what comedy improv is.

It doesn't matter if you've memorized scenes from "Whose Line Is It Anyway?" or if you've only seen your friends perform improv once.

It doesn't matter if you're the class clown or if you feel kind of shy.

Everyone will laugh and learn together.

We will play a silly warm up to remind ourselves to say "yes!" to every idea no matter how crazy.

And, then we will learn and practice popular improvisational comedy games and exercises. Have a favorite? We would love to give it a spot.

We'll always praise what works, and we'll always reflect on what we can do better.

And, we will laugh. We will definitely laugh!

NOTE: This course is ongoing. You are welcome to come or go at anytime. Each week will include a focus on a specific aspect of improvisation such as making offers, saying yes!, playing strong characters, space work and pantomime, etc. Favorite exercises will come back and new ones will be introduced. As we work together and get to know each other as a group, our improvisations will no doubt grow in strength. 

Did I mention how much we'll laugh?
