Description
This is where it all comes together.

In Level 5, you’ll move beyond exercises and into building a fully realized improv show from the ground up. As an ensemble, you’ll develop a unique format, define your group voice, and rehearse with intention—focusing on strong openings, cohesive edits, recurring themes, and dynamic scenework.

This class emphasizes:

  • Ensemble cohesion and group mind

  • Creating and refining an original long-form format

  • Making bold choices and game play

  • Strengthening callbacks, transitions, and thematic connections

  • Rehearsing with performance-level focus and feedback

The course culminates in a 3-week live run, giving you the rare opportunity to perform multiple times, deepen your work, and discover what only repetition can teach: how a good show becomes a great one. Shows will be 2 acts, approx 75-90 minutes.

This is less about learning new games—and more about becoming a team.
