No music theory? No problem! 

If you can improvise a sentence, you can improvise a song. This series embraces a 'no-music-theory' approach to musical improv, introducing students to the fundamental building blocks of improvising song structure without knowing hardly anything about song structure, and building on those skills with elements like genre, emotion, and format.

You’ll learn how to sweep an audience off their feet by putting your thoughts and emotions into verses that sound like they’ve already been written. It’s easier than you think! Get ready to amp-up your skills, surprise yourself, have a blast, and fall in love with musical improvisation. Andrew Lloyd Webber, eat your heart out. 

Weekly on Thursdays 10/22 thru 12/10 8 classes. (NO CLASS on Thanksgiving) (7 classes with a Student Showcase on Sunday, 12/13)  7:00pm-9:30pm

SHOWCASE: Sunday, December 13th

Skel and Improv Comedy met in 2010 at a small intro class. Since then, Skel has performed short form and long form in states across the USA, improvising on formats based on everything from card games to Ken Burns documentaries. Their improv superpowers are all-out-enthusiasm, whimsical goofitude, and musical improv (which is their very favorite both to perform, teach, and produce.) They believe in improv as a craft that helps us bring out the best in ourselves, celebrate one another, and make the world a better place with new and better stories—together.

When not at Curious, Skel lives in a house at the end of a rainbow sidewalk, that they share with their wife and a much-aggrieved black sphynx named ’Mo.
