Play with Long Form 201

From Character Chaos to Structured Stories

We have evolved from the free-flowing style of Improv 103 — now diving into structured long-form formats that will challenge and sharpen your scene work.

Workshop Overview

In this course, you will explore scene-based formats in improvisation, learning how to sustain engaging narratives while keeping audiences hooked. Formats include:

The Play – An improv show unfolding like a scripted play, with rich characters and relationships.

Typewriter – Scenes shaped in real-time by a "typewriter" narrating settings, actions, and twists.

The Office – Workplace antics and drama, built one improvised scene at a time.

Key Focus Areas

Scene Edits – Master smooth, dynamic transitions to keep pacing, tone, and narrative strong.

Structured Storytelling – Balance spontaneity with format rules to deliver memorable shows.

Ensemble Awareness – Play as a team while letting moments breathe.
