About this Event

Overview

This workshop is the foundation for improvisers ready to step into stronger, more confident scene work.

You’ll learn how to build believable realities, play meaningful relationships, and create comedy with intention — not luck. The course focuses on grounded performing, effective collaboration, and understanding what makes a scene engaging, funny, and worth watching.

By the end, you’ll feel more confident on stage, more connected to your scene partners, and better prepared to move into higher-level improv training in both shortform and longform.

  • Beyond Yes, And
  • Building & Living in Base Reality
  • Relationships That Matter
