The Advanced Improv 3fer
|
Rather than trying to isolate a certain skill or specific format, this course will have a three-pronged approach to mastering some of the most exciting and fun qualities of improvisation: Character, Energy, and Relationship. The 3fer will embrace the overlapping web of layers that make improv so rich and satisfying. We will give equal time to skills that develop unique characters, to developing our sense of energy and environment in a scene, and to establish fun and sincere relationships with scene partners. You can expect new approaches to the basics and lots of direct feedback in this Tier 3 Advanced class!

*Happier Valley Comedy rents land that was stolen from Indigenous people, including the Pocumtuc and Nipmuc tribes. A land acknowledgement is not appropriate or adequate to address this injustice that continues to harm people today. Therefore, we have instituted an ongoing process of contributing to the preservation of the lands and cultures of Northeastern Indigenous Peoples. All class fees contain an additional $3 to benefit The Nolumbeka Project, a local nonprofit whose mission is dedicated to these goals.
