JOIN THE WAITLIST

Now that you’ve been set up with the tools for successful scene work, it’s time to strengthen those skills and hone your comedic voice. Level Two will reinforce, revisit, and add nuance to your play, add strong character techniques, explore the concept of justification, and provide a foundational understanding of UCB-style "game-of-the-scene." We will work on recognizing the first unusual or interesting thing that emerges to build collaborative, honest scenes that highlight what you and your scene partner find funny, avoiding tropes and caricatures. Students with any previous long-form improv experience are welcome to register for this class.

*Kickstand's BIPOC improv track is currently a free / pay what you want affinity class through Level 3. After that, students pay for (or apply for a scholarship) Level 4 &amp; for Advanced Study in our BIPOC or general program, where students can learn and apply their skills to different formats. Each week of class builds on the previous one, and each Level builds on the Level before.

*Level 2 includes 6 weeks of instruction with 2.5 hours of instruction each week.

ABOUT AFRITA DAVIS
(She/Her)
Afrita started Improv journey a few years ago and fell in love with the art form.  While new to improv, she is no stranger to being in front of crowds.  She began her oratory practice in high school, where she participated in her school local forensic club. She continued to built those skills into a business and her current day job as a facilitator and personal developer coach.

She is a kind and expressive performer who sees the humor in the routine crevices of life.
