Improv Scene Work Online Improv
July 9 and 16, 2025 $25/class
These classes will explore improv scene work as the basics of 2 long forms; Montage, which is a series of scenes inspired by a single suggestion, and Monoscene, a scene that involves the entire group and takes place in one location. We will warm up with exercises that activate the improv mind set and explore different "takes" on the same idea for a range of scenes inspired by the same suggestion. The Montage work will lead into learning about the monoscene, which is a kind of an improvised one-act play. To do a monoscene, we strengthen the improv "muscles" of relationship, building a reality together, and the dynamics that develop between characters based on their wants and quirks, to tell a story together in real time.

Improv is a powerful form of communication, connection, and community-building, but most importantly it can activate powerfully positive emotions that can make us more resilient and effective in real life. This class series is designed for players at every level, from absolute beginner to more advanced participants who want to renew the foundational skills of improv and revisit some familiar games and learn new ones. It is an opportunity to experience the creativity boost, sense of possibility and joy that arises from these experiences. Improv is a unique way to tap spontaneity and lean into a process of discovery which is energizing, inspiring and most of all, a ton of fun. Each class will focus on the basics and the skills do develop with practice, so if you come to all of them the skills will build, leading to more possibilities for fun and connection. Or you can come to 1 to give it a try. Just come!
