Sign up and keep laughing.
My thoughts on Improv. I've been doing it for fifteen years and now I'm writing about it. Currently I play with NOTORIOUS and Blank Verse and teach at Second City in Toronto, ON. Recently I played and taught with Obviously Improv and the Kinkonauts in Calgary and ComedySportz Berlin in Germany. Please comment! I dig discussion.

May Class Madness
I've got a few classes coming up that I thought I would let y'all know about. For all of them, I'm partnering with the Kinkonauts and teaching out of their brand new studio space: The Lab. It's located at 112 16 Ave NW, Suite 200. I has a King Kong statue climbing up the side. Pretty hardcore. If you're interested in taking a class but don't want to pay by credit card, please email me!

First of all my Sunday Drop-In classes are back! Every week from 1-2:30pm I'll be throwing all sorts of weird and wonderful improv games and exercises your way. No experience necessary. And it's only $10. Cheap and delicious.

Delve into the sweet sounds of musical improv for one day only. You'll learn fundamentals of rhyming, song structure and musical support with live accompaniment from Ryan Sheedy of NOTORIOUS. Your singing in the shower is guaranteed to improv upon completion of this workshop.
Storytelling from Scratch - $125
Improvisers are storytellers. But unlike other performers we make up everything on the spot.
