Class Description


Team Performance Workshop is where advanced students get to continue their training as members of a limited-run improv ensemble. The first section includes eight weeks of classes during which students are assigned to teams. In the second section these teams rehearse with a coach outside of class to produce a full six week run of shows on the Magnet Mainstage. This class is offered twice a year, from November to February and again from May to August. February and August also bring opportunities to audition for placement on a Megawatt Team.

Note: Application for Team Performance Workshop can be extremely competitive and spots are limited. Placement in the class is not guaranteed.

Prerequisite: Advanced Improv L1 (nee Magnet Improv Level 5) and Instructor Approval..

SUBMISSION DEADLINE: May 23rd
NOTIFICATION DATE: May 27th

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.
