Class Description:
Now that you’ve been set up with the tools for successful scene work, it’s time to strengthen those skills and hone your comedic voice. Level Two will reinforce, revisit, and add nuance to your play, add strong character techniques, explore the concept of justification, and provide a foundational understanding of UCB-style "game-of-the-scene". We will work on recognizing the first unusual or interesting thing that emerges, to build collaborative honest scenes that highlight what you and your scene partner find funny, avoiding tropes and caricatures. Students with any previous longform improv experience are welcome to register for this class
This is an in-person class.
