The Improv Collaborative is pleased to be Boulder’s longest lasting improv community.  If you're looking for an unintimidating way to get out of your comfort zone and into your playful self, if you’re looking for a deeper, freer way of relating to each other, check out our classes and team building workshops to find the one that's right for you.

This class is truly one-of-a-kind in Boulder, offering a taste of both short and long-form improv. Short form uses a game format, leading to comedic moments similar to "Whose Line is it Anyway?". Long form, on the other hand, is more scenic and narrative, connecting improv to real-world situations.

Beyond exercises, games, and two performances, a key focus of this 9-week class is building camaraderie. When we trust and feel supported by our fellow players, our creativity naturally flourishes. It's a wonderful opportunity to have fun, make new friends, and explore the unexpected. While comedy often emerges organically, it's a delightful side effect rather than the main objective.

In this course, participants develop their acting skills and improve scene They gain a heightened awareness of their surroundings, mastering stage presence and scene dynamics. Students learn to generate authentic reactions and interactions, fully embodying their characters with both physicality and emotional richness. By taking bold and instinctive choices, they propel scenes into engaging and surprising directions, enriching each moment with true emotional commitment. Students are the writers, set designers and actors. Comedy is not a goal, but rather a (potential) side effect of great scenes. The class span is ten weeks. The class requires a minimum of 4 participants and a maximum of 8.  You can sign up for the entire 10-week course or reserve the dates that work for you.
