A safe space to make mistakes and learn from them

MEMBERSHIP: Welcome

We train improvisers, comics, writers, and creatives to perform regularly on our stages. Because of how we are structured, our organization has great incentive to invest in our members' training, to have them perform well, and to do the best we can to help promote and support them. Our system guides you from Apprentice to Artisan within your Comedy Discipline.

All of our teachers and coaches draw from one consistent theory, called The Expansion Tree. We use this theory as a common language to collaborate on all things comedy. In addition to regular classes and rehearsals with experienced coaches and teachers, we also supplement your education with a private, online Education Resource Center complete with videos and explanations.

Whether it is by watching, reading, or doing, we're here to help you learn! Select the links below for more information on each comedy discipline and how to sign up!
