Local Improv Comedy Troupe, Silverbacks Improv Theatre, will begin another round of improv classes starting in January 2018. Silverbacks began offering improv classes in the summer of 2015, and have had great success and fun with their students.

Silverbacks will begin by offering one section of Improv 1, geared toward performance. Improv 2 and 3 will follow in the spring, along with special children’s classes and Improv Intensives.

IMPROV LEVEL ONE is an entry-level course to the joys and thrills of improvisation, or improv. Students will learn and practice the application of “group mind” and the all-important “yes, and” – and other improv concepts and vocabulary. Students will practice new skills, perform and play in a safe, low-stakes and friendly atmosphere.

LEVEL ONE is perfect for the super fan of comedy or improv who has yet to perform, the curious introvert wanting to try something new, or those looking to improve their public speaking or quick decision making skills.

At the conclusion, you can move on to Level Two or continue to take LEVEL ONE again – as many times as you’d like. You’re sure to get something new out of it each time!

Still on the fence? Hear from a former student!

“Silverbacks Improv Theatre classes were a great experience. I felt like I was in a slump, and these classes lifted me up. I made friends, gained confidence, and had the opportunity to play. The teachers miraculously offer a relaxed yet rigorous environment where challenge is welcome, but never judgment.” -Leslie Tidwell

LEVEL ONE students will present a showcase of their skills during the final class (February 8th), where family, friends and the public are invited.
