the joy & ease of improv 3
|
Improv 3 is when students really see everything come together as we use the all-important skills of finding and holding onto the emotional point of view as your anchor in scenework. We also continue honing the skills of agreement, paying attention acutely, discovering and playing the scene that is already happening, and serving the scene first and foremost (and more!) In Improv 3, you'll apply your strengthening improv muscles to longer scenework and some new short form games.
The joyful, easeful adventure continues! Wheee!

*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.
