Intro to Longform is an 8-class course that builds on core improv skills and introduces the tools needed to create connected, meaningful shows. Students will explore how individual scenes can link through character, theme, or game—and how to spot and support those connections in the moment.
This course is about discovery: finding patterns, building simple structures, and learning to trust the ensemble. It’s a space to play, experiment, and begin seeing the big picture.
Topics:
- Trusting ourselves, trusting others
- Ensemble awareness and group support
- Building shows from a single suggestion
- Openings and idea generation
- Recognizing and playing patterns
- Edits and transitions (sweeps, tag-outs, walk-ons etc.)
- Connecting scenes through theme, character, or premise
- 3 longform structures (Living Room, Armando, Harold)
Pre-requisite:
- Introduction to Improv (101) (or proof of equivalent)
- Ages 16+
This course is ideally aimed at: those with some basic improv training and wishing to expand further; those who wish to specialise in long-form improv; performers with short-form background/experience wishing to become more relaxed and familiar with long-form improv.
