In Musical Improv Level 1, we’ll start to practice improvising music within structures that will make you look like a magician on stage. We will learn the basics of creating songs and applying them to improvised musical scenes. This is a fun and collaborative class where we build skills together as an ensemble, with ongoing direction and feedback to help you improve. This course will provide you with the initial training and foundational skills needed to begin building a strong musical improv practice.
No prerequisite, Musical Fun Times is recommended.

In Musical Improv Level 3, you’ll put all the pieces together to build long-form, narrative musicals. You’ll learn how to improvise a complete musical theatre comedy show with a linear story structure, using all the skills you’ve developed so far. We will strengthen your scene work, expand your musical repertoire with new song styles, and learn how to tie every element together. The class culminates in a final, improvised mini-musical performance presented to an audience. A second act will follow: an audience jam where people can sign up to play with you on stage!

In this workshop, we’ll look at how you, as a single performer can better support your scene partners. We’ll identify what makes a good team player in improv, and revisit some foundational improv skills that help us to support everyone on stage.

We’ll also practice specific support moves that you can deploy as needed in scenes, or from the sidelines/backline.

YOUR HOST
Claire Biddiscombe

Journey back in time to the late 16th century, a time rich with heroes, villains, lovers, and magical beings.

In this workshop we'll explore Shakespeare’s world through a variety of exercises that introduce us to his language, characters, and landscapes. We will explore tools such as asides and soliloquies using them as a means to make discoveries and further our scene work.

Come join me for a unique opportunity to expand your imagination.

YOUR HOST
Monika Schneider

Join us for a unique bilingual French/English improv experience led by Impro Sierra. This interactive workshop will blend both languages, with explanations and feedback delivered in French and English throughout the session.

Each scene will begin with a suggestion in either French or English, and the entire scene continues in that initial language. We'll dive deep into character creation techniques, helping you expand and diversify your character repertoire.

YOUR HOST
