Each week Queen City Comedy offers a fun, "learn through laughing" approach to building improv skills! Each Saturday, we’ll explore a key improv principle through simple games and exercises, while you build confidence and creativity. Whether you have improv experience and want to build new skills, or you are new and ready to learn — just bring yourself and a willingness to laugh and play!

Different skill focus each week:

Character creation and activation. Building memorable characters to activate and drive scenes.

Character based forms: Character monologues (if participants are willing), Possible forms: LeRonde, Armando, Character Train, Close Quarters
