SUMMER INTENSIVES
Learn two levels of BCC’s improv curriculum in one week!
full-length CLASSES
All classes end in a class show for the public.
LEVEL 1
This class will introduce new improvisers to the value of saying “Yes, and” to every idea (especially their own) to become joyful, fearless, and bold performers.
lEVEL 2
This class will help remind you what you love about improv, slap you out of whatever may be holding you back, and cut out the naysaying voices in your head. You’ll learn how to create surprising and specific choices by playing with an emotional point of view.
Prerequisite: Completion of BCC Level 1 Improv or similar experience.
LEVEL 3
We’ll explore the dynamics that make up three-person and group scenes by layering more complicated improv techniques onto fearless play. Learn to stay out of your head while balancing it all.

LEVEL 4
This culminating improv class will explore multiple improv forms, focusing on a different form each week. We will dive beyond basic structure, and tease out the universally applicable skills highlighted by each form.
