Class Reviews
The instructor reviews the basics differently each day so we can continue to anchor them - I enjoy being able to practice more due to the uncrowded classes. Great for anyone wishing to enhance improv skills; I'll definitely be back for more -

"I loved the Basic Improv class at Pan. I felt comfortable and free to play, and have since discovered that I also got a very good foundation in improv. It has helped my acting immensely."

I thought Improv 101 was amazing I had so much fun and I recommend it for any actor it helps a lot in the future. David is a fun and great teacher and the class is GREAT!
A+ from Amy Roiland, Actor member of SAG (Screen Actors Guild)
The Pan Theater Beginner Improv class was a lucky find for me. I had been away from theater altogether for about 18 years and was really itching to get back into it but was a bit scared of getting in over my head too fast.
The Pan Theater was an emotionally safe place for me to get back into the swing of things - David is a great teacher who provides very insightful feedback that has really allowed me to at first brush-up on and ultimately improve my acting skills as well as providing an excellent launching pad into the world of improvisational theater. Thank you David and thank you Pan Theater!

Taking Beginning Improv at Pan Theater was one of the most playful fun things I've done in my adult life. David creates a wonderful safe learning environment that makes it easy to learn.
I was always surprised when the time was up because the class went by so fast.
I ask many of my coaching clients to take an Improv class because it helps them become more spontaneous, less judgmental and more open for personal growth.
