Blue Blanket Improv will be hosting a "Beginning Improvisational Comedy Class" Starting Monday, September 22 @ 7-9pm

An introduction to the world of improv comedy.  Discover the power of "Yes, and…" Explore your inner Characters, Relationships, & Objectives.  Let go of planning, and enjoy living "in the moment".  This 6 week class will give you the guidelines to unleash your inner creativity. Improv develops listening, risk-taking, and the ability to support your partner, great skills for offstage as well as on. The class will culminate in a "showcase".  If that sounds intimidating, this class is for you! We support each other each step of the way, celebrating growth. There are no mistakes in improv! 

Prerequisites: A willingness to let go of your "inner critic". An ability to accept the uncertainty that comes when you don’t have control of the situation (as if we ever do!)  A recognition that trying to "be funny" is one of the big obstacles to enjoyable scenes. Unconditional respect for your fellow players and the audience.
