BIPOC Workshop: Rule of 3 - Patterns, Patterns and Something else

Level: Intermediate

Rule of 3: Patterns, Patterns and something else: Learn to Heighten like a #Boss

After almost every improv show I’ve performed, an audience member has asked “you all rehearsed before, right?” Though improv has no scripts, we do use patterns to find structure in a scene. In this class, we will take a closer look at comedy patterns, how to find them, and using them to help elevate our scenes. Does comedy really come in threes???

Learn what comedy patterns are and how to find them in scenes

How to use patterns to identify games and beats in scenes

Nursery/Maydays Sunday Classes

We work hard to provide a welcoming environment for all improvisers. In order to give space to different experiences and identities, the Nursery and the Maydays have worked to provide opportunities for specific groups to meet, connect, and improvise with one another. Each workshop will cover different topics depending on the instructor. Sometimes sessions will be aimed at particular skills, issues and questions, and other times they will simply be a place for people to come together and play.

The Nursery and the Maydays are constantly working to create programming based on the needs of our current students and the global improv community. If there is an underrepresented group that you would like to see have a workshop, send an email to classes@thenurserytheatre.com

Min. participants 6, max. 12.
