Class Description

What is the form? That is the question. In this eight week class the instructor will develop a new long form structure, inspired by YOU (the students.) This new form will serve as the basis of a show to be performed in a four week run on the main-stage at the Magnet Theater. Prerequisite: Magnet Advanced Improv Level One

Instructor: Peter McNerney

Peter has been teaching improv for over 20 years. Originally from Chicago he has served as Head of the Advanced Improv Program at the Magnet Theater in New York City since 2010 and is one half of the renowned improv duo, Trike, which The New York Times calls "reliably one of the best improv performances in the city." As an actor Peter has appeared in High Maintenance (HBO), Search Party (TBS), The Tonight Show (NBC) as well as a whole bunch of commercials. Peter also serves as the NY Artistic Director and Casting Director for the nationally respected education and media company The Story Pirates with whom he has written, produced and performed for such chart topping podcasts as The Story Pirates Podcast, The Cat in the Hat Cast and Looney Tunes Presents - Bugs & Daffy’s Thanksgiving Road Trip.
