Intro to Performing Improv

15th April – 20th May | Mondays | 19:00 – 21:30

Improvisation happens all over the place: at work, at home, when you’re messing around with your mates. Whenever you do something that you didn’t plan in advance, try something just to have a go, or join in with something that looks fun – you’re improvising! 

But what about improvising in front of people on a stage? Improv as a performance can be a scary prospect, but it can also be tremendously fun and hugely rewarding!

Following on from our hugely popular Discovering Improv course, this six-week course will immerse you in the fundamentals of improvising for an audience through games, exercises, and scenes. Our experienced facilitators will guide and support you on your journey towards performing.
