Intermediate Improv - Level 2 Core Principles - Long Form

Long form improv is where moments become stories.

Building on the foundations from Level 1, this class introduces the tools and techniques that create deeper, more connected improv scenes. You’ll explore character, relationships, emotional honesty, and how simple choices can grow into something surprising, collaborative, and hilarious.

You’ll spend less time focusing on winning the moment—and more time learning how to build scenes that matter.

• Create stronger scenes rooted in authentic relationships
• Initiate with purpose and make meaningful choices
• Discover and heighten the “game” of a scene
• Stay emotionally connected while supporting your scene partners
• Build recurring ideas into larger comedic patterns
• Develop collaborative storytelling instincts

This class is perfect if you:

• Completed Level 1 and want to explore a different style of improv
• Enjoy character-driven and relationship-focused scenes
• Want to build confidence creating longer, connected performances
• Are curious about how professional long form ensembles work
• Want to move beyond isolated games into collaborative storytelling

This class builds on Level 1 foundations and introduces a new way of thinking about improvisation.

• A strong understanding of long form fundamentals
• Tools for creating richer, more connected scenes
