Improv 101: Basics


  • 414 East 9th Street Tucson, AZ, 85705 United States (map)

Our Improv 101 class will teach you the two most important words in the improvisers vocabulary: “Yes, And.” These two seemingly simple words open up the door to our six week course that will provide your foundation for comedy improvisation: team-building, trust, speed, active listening, and agreement. Over the six weeks you will specifically learn: grounded scene work, how to develop relationships, create characters, and cultivate the environment within improv scenes. Students learn to be fearless and have fun on stage using the TIM approach to improv.
