Step into the quick-witted, big-hearted world of Amy Sherman-Palladino and Daniel Palladino. In this two-day intensive, you’ll learn to improvise with the rapid-fire dialogue, emotional depth, quirky ensemble energy, and rhythmic storytelling found in Etoile, Mrs. Maisel, Gilmore Girls, and Bunheads. Build vibrant towns, craft sharp banter, and create characters full of specificity and spark. Perfect for improvisers who love fast talk, heartfelt comedy, and richly textured worlds.
