What is Improv Comedy?
The invention of comic sketches on the spot, based on suggestions from the audience.   Sometimes the scenes involve pre-set characters or structures, but the actual content of each scene develops spontaneously onstage, as the actors cooperate to create it.

Who does It?
Anyone who likes to play with other people can learn to create and perform improvisational comedy.  We all have enormous amounts of comic and creative talent.   An Improv Comedy class teaches you how to free up that talent and how to focus it into effective onstage presentation of your ideas.
