Class Description:
Have fun, meet new people and learn to improvise in the Hideout's fun, low-pressure classes. This six-week Beginning Workshop is designed for anyone and everyone who wants to loosen up, be more spontaneous and learn to take risks on stage and in life. No prior experience necessary.
Each week you'll play games and explore a challenging variety of improv exercises that unleash your natural creativity and humor. Our work is inspired by Canadian improv guru Keith Johnstone (author of Impro and Impro for Storytellers) so even if you've done some improv in the past, you'll enjoy the Hideout's unique, inspiring approach.
