STAB! Improv 1: Foundations and Fundamentals aims to establish a solid skill set for any performer; beginning or experienced, to provide them with all of the necessary tools to be able to perform in any improv situation! A firm grasp on the Foundations and Fundamentals of improv aren’t just important for the beginning improvisor, but for the most experienced performer as well. Being able to fall back on the fundamentals in any situation is an ability that will help guide and elevate your performance wherever you find yourself.
Over the six weeks of the STAB! Improv 1 course, you will build your improv toolbox with exercises focusing on active listening, support and building on other’s ideas, finding inspiration, specifics and themes, playing to the top of your intelligence, building ideas together, making scenes more believable and the comedic point of view.
STAB! Improv One’s focus on core fundamentals is intended to not only provide a strong foundation for the beginning performer, but also to challenge more experienced players looking to sharpen their skills and be the most complete improvisor they can be.
