Classes begin with a warm up (so make sure you have room to move) followed by a group game. Then we move onto improv exercises aimed at one or two of the fundamental concepts every lesson: listening, making offers, accepting offers, raising the stakes, advancing, waffling, characterization, storytelling etc. In this ongoing course we will spend more time developing scenes together and digging into the structural elements that propel narratives forward in fun and rewarding ways. Sometimes We finish every class with a traditional improv-sports style competition utilizing outlandish challenges similar to those seen in “Whose line is it anyway?”

Because this is an ongoing class and the group dynamic changes as learners come and go, I will alter and change the lessons to match the learner directed needs of each group; however, here is an example of how the first 10 weeks of this class look:

Week 1:
Introduction to the Basics

Week 2:
Making and Accepting Offers

Week 3:
Characterization

Week 4:
Stagecraft: Locations and Objects

Week 5:
Working With Props

Week 6:

Week 7:

Week 8:

Week 9:
