NCT Improv Workshops
The
National Comedy Theatre improv workshops are an exciting
and fun approach for people from all walks of life: actors, writers, lawyers
or plumbers, beginners to experienced performers, the skills we teach can
be applied to all areas.
As an actor, writer or performer, this work is
particularly useful in getting you out of your head and into your body,
listening and responding, trusting your instincts and making good choices
- all skills that are immensely beneficial in auditions, rehearsals, and
performance both on stage and on screen.
If you're not an actor, our workshops offer you
a great way to get comfortable being in front of people, improve communication
and reasoning skills, meet new people and have a great time.
Our teachers have performed at theaters across the country and all around
the world. Whether you want to perform improv in front of a live audience,
or just tap into your creative energy, the National Comedy Theatre
improv workshops can help you achieve your goals.
We offer three levels of adult workshops, each building upon
the lessons of the previous.
Class sizes are limited, and are taught in six week sessions.
Minor League

This course stresses basic skills such as focus, teamwork, mime, character
and status - all of the things that, together, create great scene work.
The core components of improv, listening skills & your ability to
be "in the moment” are strongly emphasized. We build a solid
foundation and develop a common language that ensures success in Level
2 and beyond.
Second Semester

Building upon the skills learned in Level 1, this class places a stronger
emphasis on character and complex scene development. Improv theory,
