Learn to create scenes on the spot! In this class we will be diving into short form and long form improv. Short form improv is a series of games we play where actors create a scene based on given circumstances. Long form improv is where actors create a scene completely from nothing using only one prompt word. Whether you are new to acting or well versed, improv is a necessity for all actors. Watch your acting skills improve as you learn to set yourself free in the area of improv!
