Mary McCusker will be back at Studio 24 on November 10th to hold improv workshops that focus on the Long Form Improv technique. Mary is a tenured professor, teaching improv at UCLA and LMU!
Improvisation is a valuable skill for both comedic and dramatic work. Most sitcom actors have come from or worked with an improv group for many years. Film directors will often have actors improvise their entire scene, whether in rehearsals or while cameras are rolling. Improv teaches you to think on your feet and be spontaneous in working with your fellow actors.
Long Form improv is an extension of improv where the focus is on creating characters. The emphasis is not about being funny but creating situations to explore truthful characters and story. We will focus on exercises that explore the Long Form technique.

I feel extremely lucky to be a part of what Studio 24 has to offer here in the Sacramento area. If you know this is what you want to do, Studio 24 is the place where you will find your support, honest feedback, reality checks, productive learning experiences, and new friendships.
"For anyone looking to get a new demo reel filmed, I highly suggest checking out Studio 24. They definitely know their stuff, and they are especially great for teenage work. Cody has a great team of talented people that are ready to deliver an awesome product...Studio 24 was totally prepared for everything I could have needed!"
