Are you an experienced improviser interested in learning the tools and techniques of narrative longform?
Have you been studying improv for at least a year?
Do you like hanging out with Shana Merlin and Lauren Zinn?
Then this round of Improv 401 might be for you!
Improv 401 is the first in a three class series on Narrative Longform. In 401 we focus on sweet, simple scenework for stories. In 501 we learn how to put these scenes together to create longer arcs. And in 601 we pick our genre and produce a run of narrative longform shows with posters, promotions, and everything!
I haven't had a 401 in a while and I won't be teaching another one until March 2012, so this is a good time to get in.

This workshop gets to the heart of improv for storytellers by exploring scenework for narrative longform.
