Summer Improv Course in Cologne 4x Friday
👉 To secure your place, sign up here: https://expatimprov.com/produkt/summer-pilot-course-improv-in-cologne/ — a Meetup RSVP alone will not hold a spot.
4 Friday evenings !
Beginners welcome · Max. 12 people
This 4-week pilot course is the soft launch of Expat Improv at our brand new Cologne studio. It's designed for beginners and the curious-but-not-yet-committed — people who want to actually play, in a fixed group, over a few weeks, building real scenes together.
We'll work as an ensemble from day one, strengthen listening and presence, and move from single exercises to short connected scenes. By the end, you'll know whether to commit to our regular 6-week course program starting in September.
At the final session, we share what we've worked on in a small, friendly informal showing — friends and family welcome. No pressure, no public performance.
⚠️ Important: an RSVP here is not enough
An RSVP on Meetup does not reserve your spot. The group is capped at 12 people, and places are only secured through official sign-up. To book, please register and pay here: 👉 https://expatimprov.com/produkt/summer-pilot-course-improv-in-cologne/

Flexibility Missed a session? Not ideal — the pilot is a connected 4-week arc and the group dynamic builds week by week. If you know in advance that you can't make one date, please get in touch before booking so we can find the right fit (this or the September course).
What to expect In this compact pilot, you'll build confidence, presence, and playfulness on stage — alongside the same group of players.
Our focus:
✓ The foundations of improv — "Yes, And" and beyond
✓ Ensemble work: developing scenes together
✓ Listening, presence, and being in the moment
✓ Status, relationships, and scene-building
✓ A short informal showing at the end of the course
No prior experience needed. Just curiosity and a willingness to play.
