WEDNESDAYS: 7-9 PM, Jan 2025 // Wigwam Downstairs
CLASS DESCRIPTION: Focus on the "game of the scene" and what makes great improv scenes tick in our second level. Suitable for students who have taken Intro to Improv with MOB or students with some Improv Training, seeking a refresher course that is more advanced than Improv: Basics. Over the course, students will be taught to identify the “game” of the scene, exploring/mining the scene, supporting the “game” using patterns and will be introduced to second beats as we start to learn about “the Harold”. All students shall receive a MOB Student Card which will grant them free admission to Thursday-Night MOB shows at Wigwam for the duration of the course. Discover and practice what makes great long-form Improv scenes in a fun and supportive environment.
