Class description

Other Forms

Are you ready to experiment with your improv and learn to play in different ways? Do you want to break the show and reform it, and see what happens when you do? Want to be whimsical, comical, and human in scenes one after the other?

Our level 5 introduces you to other classic improv forms that go beyond the Harold. Still with close feedback and teacher guidance to help you improve, level 5 shows how the form creates the content, and the content powers the form. Not just what are we doing, but why? How does this all work?

For more confident improvisers with a solid grounding in longform core skills and how to apply them in performance, our level 5 introduces three new structures, each with its own challenges, rhythms, secrets and delights. You will see what connects them and how they are different, developing the taste and discernment that comes with in-depth knowledge.

End-of-term Showcase

You'll perform in an end-of-term showcase for friends and family on Wednesday, 9th December.

Important Notes:

While we strive to maintain the advertised showcase schedule, dates are subject to change due to unforeseen circumstances. Refunds will not be issued in the event of a showcase date alteration.

Although most of our students perform at the end of their courses, all showings are optional. They are not tests or graduations; they are just a chance to do what you have been doing in class and receive the adulation of your loved ones.
