Class Description


In this two week workshop we'll brush up on our foundational techniques and look at the basic components that make a scene 'improvisable.' We'll talk about the artificial division between 'relationship scenes' and 'game scenes,' and work with simple techniques to get more out of both. Expect lots of stage time and explicit personal feedback. (Prerequisite Magnet level two)

Instructor: Louis Kornfeld

Louis Kornfeld began improvising way back in 2003, when both his phone and online presence were at the forefront of millennium culture. He's been a proud member of the Magnet Theater since it opened its doors, having logged countless hours as a performer, intern, house manager, member of 'The Boss,' Megawatt director, and (for the past fifteen years) teacher of improvisation. What can he say? He loves it.

In addition to improv, Louis is also an award winning writer and actor whose work is routinely featured on 'The Truth' podcast. Check it out, why don't you?

You can see him performing every Sunday night with the great Rick Andrews in 'Kornfeld & Andrews.' They have some short videos online you might enjoy.

He thinks you're doing great.
