Want to take Improv Classes?
Every day, people make split second decisions that affect their lives and by doing so improvise. Have you ever wanted to use this inherent skill to perform on a live improv stage? Would you like to feel more confident in meetings? Do you want to meet different people and have fun?
The Village Theatre offers a 5 Level Training Program for Short Form Improv, in addition to an on-going Long Form training workshop. Both are designed for individuals with little or no acting or improvisational skills. Taught by our seasoned veterans of the stage, we teach you the basic techniques used in improv scene work. The 5 different levels are:
Level 1 – Fundamentals
Level 2* – Improv Scene Work
Level 3* – Character Creation & Development
Level 4* – Performance
Level 5* – Advanced Performance
*Levels 2 – 5 require instructor permission (or audition – see below).
The Foundation – Level 1 Fundamentals

Limit – 12 students
Available Level 1 Class Dates
