The Maydays Longform Improvisation Course Autumn 2014

In these classes, the emphasis moves away from shortform games and towards a more fluid and versatile kind of improvised comedy and theatre. Just like the Maydays perform themselves. We teach you techniques to create whole shows from a simple one-word suggestion, a monologue, or a newspaper article.

You learn how to create longer, more subtle and detailed scenes and explore a much wider range of improv possibilities. We also offer you the freedom to create your own new forms with the guidance of experienced members of The Maydays.

"I enjoyed most, the energy that long form improv gave me, and therefore the freedom almost to be myself. Life requires so many roles and here i could be all of them. The biggest challenge was sticking to a format, a story with links. Inevitably more rewarding in the long run, especially with other team support. I have got a lot of confidence out of the course, lots of understanding of me. Great fun, freedom, a chance to release, and just loads of fun! I also found it hard which was good, and i want more and more challenges like this. Loved it!"

The course culminates in a show for friends and family
