Learn how to create spontaneous stories live on stage. Although narrative improv uses similar techniques as other styles, it follows different patterns — and this 8-week course introduces you to the essential skills to do it confidently.
By the end of the course, you will know how to create fascinating and spontaneous stories on the spot. In addition, you will have exercised skills in building engaging worlds, story structure, and how to follow consequential actions to create a narrative, as well as learn the characteristics necessary for a good protagonist.
