Class sizes will be limited to ensure focus and individual attention. \nWhile fees are paid termly\, students who audition and are accepted must commit to attending all three terms\, including full participation in dress rehearsals and both final performances.

SUMMARY:DON'T PANIC - IMPROV FOR ADULTS SUMMER 2026 TUE 7:30PM
DESCRIPTION:JUMP TO REGISTRATION \n‘There are people who prefer to say ‘Yes’\, and there are people who prefer to say ‘No’.

SUMMARY:STORY - IMPROV FOR ADULTS SUMMER 2026 SUN 3:15PM
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  \nDOWNLOAD CLASS SCHEDULE
