Improv Lab Description
Every time you drop into Improv Lab we will be focusing on a new improv skill including: improv basics such as how to accept and build on other players’ ideas, how to find the pattern of the scene, and how to establish a solid foundation. You will also be learning skills such as character, space objects, environment, and playing to the top of your intelligence.
For new students Improv Lab is like putting your toe in the water. You get a test what we have to offer. Improv Lab is also good for our students who have taken Improv 101 and want to continue their training. You will have fun, meet great people, and learn improv skills in a safe and supportive environment.
