The first three scenes of a longform are the most important scenes in the show because they set up the foundation for everything to come. In this class, we’ll explore how to create a strong foundation for a longform narrative by honing in on those scenes. By learning how to cultivate those early offers in the first three scenes, we can set up a rock-solid foundation for the rest of the show. This class will challenge you to explore and experiment with those initial scenes, helping you to break out of old habits and find new ways to push your creativity. Throughout the class, you’ll learn techniques for developing characters and storylines that will keep your audience engaged and invested in the show. You’ll also work on improving your listening and collaboration skills, so you can effectively build off of your fellow improvisers’ ideas and create a cohesive narrative together.
