Musical Improv Level 1

Over 6 sessions, Musical Improv Level 1 will introduce you to the world of musical improv through exercises, games, and scene work. We will learn the basics of how to improvise melody and lyrics of a song and how to apply these elements within a scene. We will start to practice creating music within song structures that will make you look like a magician on stage. You will walk away from this course with the initial training necessary for long form musical improv competency which is also the prerequisite to further your study of improvising a full length musical (a.k.a. a musical narrative or long form musical). No grad show.

Prerequisite: Musical Fun Times and permission from the instructor. Priority spots reserved for students who have most recently completed Musical Fun Times.

$6 – $320

Sunday Night Improv Workshop

Our workshop is a lively, engaging experience that leads directly into our show. Every Sunday, you can join us to practice scenes and learn about story-based improv, guided by a variety of great teachers. Sunday 4-6, always free.

Sunday Night Improv

Our show is a natural extension of the workshop. A regular rotation of some of Montreal’s most talented improvisers always perform, including Sandi Armstrong, Alain Mercieca, Heidi Lynne Weeks, Maité Sinave, Mariana Vial, Adalia Pemberton, Solly Krygier-Paine, Kristina Guevarra, Mason Persaud, Shanthony Exum, Nicky Fournier and Jeremy Lewis . On top of having seasoned improvisers, we also have the new birds that walk in for the first time and steal the show. You could just literally show up and get thrown in the fire of a live show with no script! It has led to many amazing walk-in, home run hitters and creates an awesome “anything can happen” spirit, which is the backbone to improv.

Always entertaining, Sunday Night Improv promises a good time for audiences who are welcome to contribute to the show through their suggestions and voting.
