Who, Where, What Do You Want | Second City Improv Week 4

But back to this i said this is the last day because it is this is week four of improv one improv one is a class that you can take it in uh that you can take at the second city because there's improv one two three four and five and they all last for seven weeks And after that fifth week, you can apply for conservatory, which is the professional improvisers.

And then after that, it's like a whole new dedicated, you know, I've spent a whole year and a half or six months, I forgot how long conservatory is, but those are for the professional actors.

We want to potentially do the ensemble shows or the tours.

I don't know what it consists of.

I didn't pursue it.

I did pursue improv for actors one and two.

Totally separate classes.

There is sketch comedy.

There's writing classes.

There's improv for people with anxiety.

There's so much that the Second City in Chicago has to offer.

And if you ever have the chance to go, because they do have drop-in classes, definitely go.

And so...

For today, it is my fourth week, and the way, I'm not sure about the other classes, but the way that the Second City structures it is that improv one, two, three, four, and five, and then you can go to conservatory.

Every term lasts for seven weeks, but just because improv one is the first basic level, if you have no improv experience, acting experience, You're kind of intimidated.

You don't know the rules.

Improv 1 is the way to go.

That's the reason why I did it.

I just wanted the foundation.

I wanted the basis of the base of whatever you're going to learn about improv.

The way that they structure it is eight weeks in total, but they break it in half.

So four weeks, it's called Improv 1A.

Then another four weeks, Improv 1B.

And this is just so you may not...

You know, you're kind of hesitant on dedicating seven weeks in total, so they just break it up into four weeks.
