While still emphasizing fun, the class will explore some of the skills needed to perform improvisational theatre in front of an audience. Concepts include teamwork, status, character, relationships, genre, locations, space objects, and narrative structure. The class will delve into full scenes and comedy show games while having fun and celebrating risk taking.

Students will leave the class understanding the basics of improvising two and three character narratively-driven scenes.

The workshop is aimed at people that have completed a Beginning Improv class.

Terry Sandke, workshop leader, has been teaching Improv at Dragon Productions since 2007. He was a founding member of the San Francisco Improv troupe, "Spontaneous Combustion" and has been an improv performer for 15 years - 11 as a BATS Improv Sunday Player in San Francisco.

*With two-hour sessions fitting the schedules of working adults, smaller classes, and lower prices, Dragon Productions’ workshops are the best Improv class value on the Peninsula and in the South Bay.
