Drop-in improvisation classes are an accessible and fresh way of experiencing the thrill of improv.

No prior experience is necessary, but experienced actors and improvisers looking to get some reps in are also welcome! We will explore the full range of improvisation exercises influenced by Augusto Boal, Viola Spolin, and others — some comedic, some experimental, all expressive and fun!

Expect to laugh, meet new friends, move your body, and develop skills helpful for improv, acting, stand-up, sketch comedy, business, and everyday life.

Details:

These classes are welcome to everyone, with a special invitation to artists who are LGBTQIA, BIPOC, femme-identified, or formerly incarcerated. All donations support our hybrid performance work, including arts programming in prisons.

Let us know you're coming!

Drop ins are welcome, but an RSVP helps us know what to plan for.
