IMPROVISATION SKILLS WORKSHOP
Come stretch your mind, body and funny bone! The Las Vegas Improvisation Players offer a great place to work on your comedic improvisation skills, whether you are brand new to improv or a seasoned veteran.
Set in a fun and supportive environment, LVIP workshops offer a comprehensive overview of the fundamental basics of improvisation. It includes, but it not limited to:
The Rules of Improv
Understanding the basics of a scene work (Who, What, Where)
Creating characters
Listening and Focus
Object work
Physical and Vocal exercises
Musical Improv
Stage presence
Supporting your fellow improvisers
…much more!
Led by expert and experienced instructors, players are introduced to various exercises and improv games. It is an encouraging and supportive setting in which every player is given the stage time to learn and grow as an improviser. Also, each month, members of the workshop have an opportunity to show off their skills in a LVIP-sponsored showcase open to the public.
Workshops are held every Thursday from 6:30 – 8:30pm at the Grace Valley Church, located 1370 E. Robindale Road in Las Vegas. Workshops are only $10 each and are open to anyone 16 years of age and older.

Does the weekly workshop have an ongoing format like a regular class starting in a certain place and moving its way up building new skills and insights as the sessions go along? (Like an 8-week course?)
Or does it quote “start all over again ” for people as they come and go each week?
Neither of those , we work a specific improv muscle each week it builds and grows as much as you do we have between 16-20 regular participants many of whom have been doing this for years newcomers will get the same attention as everyone else we don’t dial back to basics we work on it all whole cloth as we go you would get new feedback as you go improv is bottomless. Also the subject varies and there are four to five weeks between showcases casting happens directly from classes based on criteria set forth in our guidelines. Improvement is always possible and leadership has recently changed we will keep up our current schedule and practices while adding our own knowledge moving forward. Thanks and sorry for the late reply. Unless you’d been contacted by email which I suppose is quite possible.
