What/Where:
|
Are you ready to get some object work reps?
What/Where is like a trip to the improv gym, and the workout involves lifting and manipulating a lot of air.
Each week we’ll focus on exercises to help sharpen and expand your object and environment work and then directly apply it to scenes, games and long form structures.
This eight-week deep dive is a chance to work those object and environment muscles until the imaginary sweat is pouring off of you!
Prerequisite: Long Form Scenework, Find Your Scene, or The Next Leap

*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.
