Improv For Writing

Want to write something new and unexpected? This class uses improv writing games to inspire creativity. 

Remember the sense of freedom you had as a kid when you were making stuff up with your friends? There were no rules, no limits. Improv can help get you back in touch with that playful part of yourself and silence the inner critic. It can inform the way you write and develop characters, as well as help you find your unique voice.  

For those who feel you have a writer inside, or just want to explore writing, this class is ideal. For professional writers, it’s an opportunity to have fun and connect with why you wanted to write in the first place. 

Nothing to prepare. No homework. No performing. The class is intended to be light, deep, serious, funny, whatever the moment calls for. It is process oriented rather than results oriented. But the short pieces you create could be the seeds of longer projects you never dreamed of writing. A play? Novel? Screenplay? When you let go of the reins, no telling how you’ll surprise yourself.

Intro to TV Comedy Writing

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to create your own TV show? This class will guide you to begin developing an original comedy pilot. All you need are the seeds of an idea that captures your imagination. We’ll work together to bring that idea to life with a focus on crafting vivid characters, which are the fundamental building blocks of effective storytelling.

In this class, we’ll screen and analyze a variety of TV comedies with unforgettable characters and crack the code of how their relationships keep us coming back week after week. Writing exercises will give you the tools to explore your own characters’ inner lives and the emotions that drive them. 

New and experienced writers welcome. Hone your individual comedic voice in a fun, supportive setting. You’ll leave with a head start on a TV show that only you can create.
