Improv Formats

Formats are structured frameworks for longer-form improvisation. They give a show or practice session a shape — a beginning, middle, and end — while still leaving room for discovery.

Whether you’re rehearsing for a show or exploring new structures in class, these formats provide a container for the skills you’ve been developing.
