Course Description

The MaestroTM competition is going great! You've had duo and trio scenes, and even got some mischief into the mix. Suddenly, your number is called to the stage. Just You. And then one of the directors asks, "Do you have something you'd like to try?" Over the four weeks of this course, we'll transform your favourite improv games and scenes into solo adventures. This deep dive is aimed at improvisors who have some short form game experience (through classes or stage time) AND who are ready to find their spotlight without sweating the pressure! Registration notes Two $5 access tickets are available for this course. These places are intended for members of the Ottawa improv community who are in need of financial assistance and/or whose identities are underrepresented in the community.

If you are a beginner, we recommend that you check out our friends at The Improv Embassy. If you’re new to us, a member of the WIT team may follow up with you to confirm your experience.
