Class description

The Scene course is all about how we build connections with each other and create strong relationships. Within the framework of 2-person improv scene exercises, we look at the key stages in how we develop bonds between individuals/characters in order that they are invested in and care about each other, and then how we can take the ordinary about them and make it extraordinary - and very funny.

This requires us as improvisers to be observant and attentive to each other and to build on one another’s contributions to decide: who these characters are; why we are seeing them; how they feel about each other; and how we, the audience, feel about them.

You’ll learn:

How to create strong connections between characters

How to choose what the funny focus of the scene is

How to support your colleagues from the sideline

How to create a comedic dynamic between two characters

2-person scenic short-form games
