About this Event

*THE COST ($200) IS FOR ALL 6 CLASSES TOTAL, NOT PER EACH CLASS. YOU CAN JUST CHOOSE THE FIRST DATE OCT 22. YOU ARE GOOD FOR ALL 6 CLASSES*

CLASSES ARE 7:00-9:00PM

Bringing supportive, innovative, dynamic and engaging improvisation classes to Portland Maine, since Fall of 2022.

Students of all levels and backgrounds can become proficient improvisers and experience the magic of writing, acting and creating right in the moment, using the knowledge, instincts and playfulness we all carry around with us all the time.

We use lively, playful and constantly evolving warmup games and scene variations, getting into the various tools of improv- emotional connection, characters, physicality, space & object work, mimicry, accessing innate language knowledge, genres & more.

This 6-week class also includes a GRAD IMPROV SHOW, after the last class, where students may invite friends & family to see them performing some of their most fun & entertaining scene variations in local Portland venue, up on the "stage".

Teacher Adam Groppman is a Boston native and Portland resident who came up in Los Angeles' comedy scene as a standup comedian who went through and graduated from the famed Second City's LA Conservatory Program, took classes at LA's UCB and Bang Comedy Theater, and at SF's Bay Area Theater Sports. His sketch group Sketch Armstrong won distinction in various variety shows, full lengths sketch shows and at festivals including LA's Comedy Central Stage, The Comedy Cocktail Show, SF SketchFest, Sacramento All Sketch, UCB Theater LA and the Montreal JFL and HBO Aspen festivals.

Adam loves being in Portland and is excited to bring the transformative joy of improv to enthusiastic Portlanders.
