What past students have said about Pan Theater's Improv Classes

Class Description:  

Try your hand at improvisational theater (acting) in a small, relaxed class. This short class gives you a taste of improv. Course material includes theater games, and skill building exercises. Introduction to Improv is the perfect way to explore your interest in improv acting. Upon completion of the class students will have a good foundation for our Improv Basics class or other improv related classes. This class is a fun, relaxed, and free chance to learn about both improv and Pan Theater.

Those that attend our Intro to Improv Class and register for an Improv Basics class on the same day get a $30 off the tuition of our next session of Improv Basics (from the current listed price).

 

 

Note:

There is no need to be funny and no pressure to make people laugh through the work. Humor may arise out of a scene or may not. The exercises teach the skills necessary to become more verbally/mentally fluid. Humor arises from the work, though good scenes can just as easily be dramatic and serious.
