Level 5: Truth in comedy


  • The Ship 68 Borough Road London, England, SE1 1DX United Kingdom (map)

8 week course with Chris Mead inspired by his training with iO Chicago.

For experienced improvisers who want to immerse themselves in the origins of Chicago style long-form improvisation and discover truth in comedy.

Topics over the course will include Agreement, Support, Trust, Patterns, Themes and Relationships. Most of all we’ll be exploring being honest on stage and using our full selves in the present moment.

Instead of going for the quick jokes we’ll be playing the reality of the scene and improvising moment to moment with what feels honest and true there and then.

Chris will be creating a really supportive team where you feel confident to express yourself and use your true feelings and life experiences in scenes.

This style of improvisation feels liberating for the performer, and creates fantastically rich and funny scenes for the audience.

There’s nothing funnier than the truth.
