Improv for Adults
Thursdays, September 26, October 3, 10, 17 & 24
Class Times: 6:30-8:00 p.m.
Classes: 5
Ages: Adult
Registration Deadline: September 16
This series of classes will teach the principles of improv to adults (ages 18-118) who aren't necessarily interested in performing. That said, a public performance is a possibility for those who want to conclude these classes with a show or work toward performing after continued classes in the future. (Many folks gain the confidence to take it further once they've had a few successes!) At the least, participants will have fun while learning to think on their feet and roll with the surprises that daily life hands us.
Location: ARTS HUB - First United Methodist Church Waupaca, 720 Demarest Ave, Waupaca, WI 54981
Note: Hub Registrations must be completed one student at a time. Multiple classes may be added for that student, but a separate order is needed for each participant.
(No refunds will be offered within two weeks of the first-class date.)
