Improvisation is about listening, reacting, and creating scenes together in the moment. Through games, exercises, and guided scene work, participants will learn the core principles of improv while building confidence, creativity, and stage presence.

The class takes place in a relaxed and supportive environment where the focus is on collaboration and exploration. There is no pressure to be funny. The goal is to learn the tools of improvisation and enjoy the creative process with others.

During the course we will explore the fundamental techniques of theatrical improvisation, including:
• Listening and reacting on stage
