Dive In! Improv Theme Workshops (With guest Lauren Berning)

If you've got a desire to strengthen your improv tool belt, we present to you two deep dive workshops. We'll spend the morning working on clairty of mime and how defining space can add many layers to you improv. Then in the afternoon we'll focus on ways to open and close your scenes. Classes often focus on the scene contents, in this class we'll work only on how to get going and draw your audience in, and how to find the right moments to close your scenes.

Both sessions are appropriate for short of longform lovers!

1 day, 2 workshops. Join for either half day, or for the full day.
These classes are perfect for improvisers who want to take their skills to the next level.

Afternoon: Beginnings & Endings
Master the art of impactful scene starts and satisfying endings. Learn to hook your audience and leave them wanting more! This half-day intensive will equip you with tools to create engaging openings and satisfying conclusions.
