Improv 201: Characters and Relationships (Sundays 1:00 PM - 3:00 PM)

Emotional reactions are the bedrock of improv. In our second level, you will strengthen the skills you built in our Intro class and focus on creating sustainable scenes based on patterns of emotional behavior that inform Characters and Relationships.

Great if you want to dig deeper into improv or if you need to interact with other humans in your day-to-day life..

Dates: The class runs Sundays from 01/11/2026 to 03/01/2026, starting 01/11/2026 and running for 8 weeks.

A showcase will be scheduled as an additional opportunity on an evening during the week of March 8.
