Improv: Level 1 - The Study of Improvisation with​ Stephen Tobolowsky
Please contact Wendy Sheridan, Education Coordinator, for guidance, 818.377.3600. ex. 111 or email.

Prerequisite: Adults (18 and over) 

The Kalmensons were able to join forces with a uniquely qualified actor, teacher, and lecturer to kick off their Improvisational Adventure. With a biography that could start a handsome paper drive, Stephen Tobolowsky brings with him a verve and compassion for actors second to none. Stephen shares his in-depth knowledge of Stanislavski, along with more than two hundred theatrical credits.

"Life is a constant Improvisation." For years we've been recommending Voice Over Actors to study improv. Now we're going to blow you away with this excellent workout!
