As part of transitioning back into improvising during the COVID-19 pandemic, we will be running our classes a little differently for the near future.
For now, we are asking students to pre-book into our workshops (no sales at the door). If you are feeling sick, do NOT attend. Let us know before the workshop and we can offer you a refund (the more notice the better, but any time before the workshop is fine). You are also asked not to touch anyone during the workshop, practice physical distancing and maintain good hand hygiene.

Improvising is a skill. The more you practice it, the better you will become. As we progress as improvisers and pick up bad habits, it is easy to forget some of the foundational lessons on which improv is based.
Taking from the 10 Commandments of Improvisation by Keith Johnstone, and the 11 Commandments of Improvisation by Del Close, this class applies basic lessons in advanced situations.
Taught by Tenuous Link’s Claire Bottrall and Paul Gordon, this scene-focussed class is ideal for improvisers who have been performing for a long time, as well as those who have just come through Intermediate classes.
Prebooking is STRONGLY encouraged, as pre-class instructions will be given by the teachers.
Pre-requisites: Intermediate Impro or similar
Dress Code: Casual and comfy
Duration: 2 hours per class for seven weeks
Members Cost: $12 per class (concession $8)
Non-Members Cost: $20 per class (concession $15)
Discount applies if you buy all classes upfront.
