Class Description


Everyone loves a good story. And by asking ourselves the right kinds of questions, we can learn to develop our own riveting narratives based on a simple two person scene. In this class we'll be tracking things like wants, needs, hopes, fears and relationships to weave compelling threads of story together and create pieces that are as dramatically satisfying as they are funny. Prerequisite: Magnet Level Three or Instructor Approval

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.
