How do you make a scene truly funny? What turns an ordinary moment into something hilarious? This class focuses on using structure, patterns, and bold choices to unlock your comedic instincts in long-form improv.

You’ll explore foundational formats like La Ronde, The Harold, and The Armando while learning how to identify the “game” of the scene, heighten unusual moments, and support your ensemble with strong edits and callbacks. This class is ideal for improvisers looking to sharpen their long-form skills and grow their comedic confidence in a supportive environment.

In this class, you will:
  • Discover what makes a scene funny and how to heighten it
  • Identify and play with the “game” or unusual thing in a scene
  • Explore foundational long-form formats
  • Practice support moves, edits, and callbacks
  • Learn how structure can create more freedom onstage
  • Receive personalized feedback to strengthen your comedic instincts
  • Take part in a final student showcase
