Description

The Kinkonauts

The Kinkonauts, Calgary's Improv Lab, has delighted audiences with extraordinary unscripted theatre since 2006. Every show is a unique, never to be repeated adventure. Enjoy the tightrope thrill of performers living completely in the moment. Improvised stories and characters you'll still be laughing about at the bar later. 

Improv 101: Intro Part 1

This is a six week course with sessions running 7:30-9:30pm on the following Wednesdays:

November 6, 13, 20, 27, December 4, 11.

Next offerings: November: Saturdays. 

Classes are for students aged 18+

Maybe you’ve heard the amazing ways improv helps with creativity and communication. Or maybe you’ve seen a show and thought: “I want to do that one day!” Either way, Improv 101 is the place to start!

Learn the basics of improv in a fun, safe, and low-pressure environment, taught by one of the fantastic Kinkonauts instructors.

This is Part 1 of a two-part introduction course – each part is six weeks long. It is offered multiple times throughout the year. 

This class assumes students are starting with no improv experience. If you have some improv experience already, email Devin to see which class would be appropriate for you.

Instructor: Christopher Ford

Christopher Ford is one of the original bad boys of comedy and one of the original very good boys of earning trips to the candy store with his mommy.  He has taught people of all ages to improvise, act, sing, dance, and play Hot Cross Buns on the recorder, and he'd be happy to teach you, too.  Chris has performed regularly with the Kinkonauts for 7 years in shows like Improvised ClueImprov: The Musical, and Good Sport! and Starfleet Confidential (both of which he produces).  He acts regularly in theatre around our fair city in productions for Morpheus, Simply Theatre, and Jubilations, and is the proud co-father of both Weird Pal (Calgary's quarterly song parody night) and the weekly Villains of Comedy (Calgary's dedicated alt comedy stage).
