Learning to Improv with Second City

Second City guides members through interactive exercises.

Members learned the ropes of improv on July 30 at the L.A. Local in the fourth of a series of workshops presented by the Second City Training Center. Second City has been performing and teaching improv for 55 years and is commonly referred to as the Harvard of comedy. In the two-hour workshop, Second City taught more than 100 members the fundamentals of improv through interactive games and exercises. As is often said in the improv workshops, “You don’t need experience, just the willingness to explore your creativity.”
