What to Expect at the Improvazilla Impro Dojo
Each class lasts two hours. First, the group works on short-form improv—the scene games often seen on TV and stage. Then, the focus shifts to open scene work that leads into long-form.
The yearlong curriculum also changes theme every month. For example, November covers genres. Finally, December closes the year with stagecraft and performance.
Chris Wells, artistic director of TCS Improvazilla, leads most workshops. When he is away, however, members of the Improvazilla Show cast teach instead.
After class, many students head across the street to the restaurant Hoff. As a result, the night often continues with food and conversation.
