SUMMARY:STORY - IMPROV FOR ADULTS WINTER 2026 SAT 5:15PM
DESCRIPTION:JUMP TO REGISTRATION \n“The improviser has to be like a man walking backwards. He sees where he has been\, but he pays no attention to the future. His story can take him anywhere\, but he must still ‘balance’ it\, and give it shape\, by remembering incidents that have been shelved and reincorporating them.”” – Keith Johnstone \nImprov that focuses on narrative tries to tell a story that has a complete arc from beginning to end\, a story that elicits not only laughter\, but an emotional response. This course will teach you how to create compelling narratives on stage. We will explore various techniques and formats that bring the audience to the edge of their seats in laughter\, fear\, expectation\, and anticipation. \nThis course is for you if you have completed ‘Don’t Panic’ and you want to focus on how to create a narrative structure on stage with your fellow improvisors. \n \n• Limited participants per class ensuring you get personalised attention from your instructor \n• Over 14 hours of tuition including stage-time in a professional theatre \n• A showcase performance at the Courtyard Playhouse open to your friends and family \nDOWNLOAD CLASS SCHEDULE

SUMMARY:CONNECTION ON CUE: EXPERIENCE ACT 1  - FRI 19 NOV 2026
DESCRIPTION:The first few minutes of any corporate programme determine the tone\, trust and energy that follow. \nConnection on Cue is a curated evening for HR and L&D leaders who are rethinking how teams are engaged from the very first moment. Hosted at The Courtyard Playhouse\, this live preview offers an inside look at Act 1\, our improvisation-based corporate ice-breaker and team energiser. \nRather than presenting theory\, we invite you to experience the structure in action. \nThrough a short\, facilitated activation\, you will see how Act 1 is intentionally designed to create connection\, focus and shared momentum before teams move into deeper development work. We’ll unpack the thinking behind it and demonstrate how the right opening transforms what follows. \nThe evening also includes informal networking with peers in a relaxed theatre setting. \nIf you are exploring more effective ways to begin conferences\, training days or leadership programmes\, this event offers a practical\, live example of how to set the tone with clarity and energy. \n\nEvening Schedule: \n6:30 pm – 7:00 pm Arrival & Welcome Drink \n 7:00 pm – 8:15 pm Act 1: Live Improv Ice-Breaker Experience followed by Q&A \n8:15 pm – 9:00 pm Networking & Canapés
