This course builds directly on Missimp's Intro to Improv course – so it's not a huge leap, and more often than not a lot of the people will have come straight from our Level One. Missimp focus on one of the things people find most fun about our intro to improv course (and doing improv in general) – characters!

One of the many things that Missimp love about improv is that we are not bound by who we are in the "real world". From scene to scene we might play pirates or astronauts, lovers or politicians, race-car drivers or inanimate objects – with a supportive scene partner by your side, the scope is limitless!

Initially we look at how as an improviser you don't need to "be creative" to be able to spontaneously make a wide variety of weird and wonderful characters. We work through a number of fun exercises and ideas, drawing on training from a wide variety of schools across the globe, aimed at giving you a vast tool belt to access a whole cast of dynamic, engaging people every time you step on stage.

We then work on how we can use characters to help power our scenes and even entire long-form shows, simply by finding what's fun about the people you're playing!

Eligibility Requirements
You must have taken Improv Level 1 or have equivalent experience / training with MissImp or another improv group. If your training was not done with MissImp, please check before booking on the course, we cannot guarantee a full refund to those who are ineligible but book without first checking.
