Improvising longer scenes takes a patient and slower play style, creating a depth of world building that can be rewarding for both the performer and the audience. In this five week class, students will practice the skills and develop the confidence to sustain longer scenes, establishing fuller characters and environments that can be fully lived in for longer than two or three minutes. Students will learn how to establish a scene layer by layer and then play within those layers for ten minutes or more. This class includes a student showcase. The prerequisite for this class is completion of Level Five Improv at Stomping Ground Comedy Theater or graduation from an equivalent program with permission from the Training Center Director.
Students who have not completed Level Five Improv at Stomping Ground Comedy Theater should email the Training Center Director (education@stompinggroundcomedy.org) with their previous experience.
