Inspired by the work of Elaine May & Del Close, you’ll learn 4 basic principles of improvisation

  1. Make active & positive choices
  2. Support each other
  3. It’s an actor’s job to justify (work with what you have)
  4. Be seen & be heard

That SAME NIGHT, you show off your new skills in a live-streamed online show which will later be posted to Youtube.

Scotty’s believes that all learning comes from brave experimentation. He creates a safe place to explore and grow, with lots of positive encouragement for working outside your comfort zone.
