Class Description


From day one you will jump into a series of fun warm ups and games designed to ease you into improv. Before you know it you will be playing scenes and learning how to heighten and explore your ideas. As the class progresses you will learn how to do 2 person scenes, group scenes, group games and how to deliver simple monologues. The class is all about fun and support. Whether you are a beginner who has never improvised or someone who has improv experience, you will learn strong fundamentals that will build your confidence, improve speaking skills and foster spontaneity

Instructor: Jason Farr

Jason Farr is an Actor, Comedian, and Podcaster living in Brooklyn. He’s thrilled to be a member of the Magnet community as both a performer and teacher. He loves grounded but still silly comedy so he loves performing every Friday night at 9pm at Magnet on The Friday Night Sh*w! He's a frequent guest on various shows at the theater and around the city. He also hosts a weekly podcast about comedy called “There It Is” (thereitispod.com) which has had many great Magnet figures as guests.

Before moving to New York City, Jason studied and performed improv at the Alchemy Comedy Theater and co-founded the stand up comedy collective No Expectations Comedy in Greenville, SC.

Jason enjoys Snoopy, Prince, whenever Conan O'Brien sings “Shimmy-Yaaa,” and traveling with his wife, Justina.
