About This Course

Play For Keeps is a course designed to help improvisers create scenes that have higher stakes and emotional depth. Play scenes that matter, where the audience is compelled by the characters and relationships on stage. Actors will be pushed to make strong choices, react truthfully, and play with integrity. These scenes can be comedic, dramatic, or a delightful mix of both.

The focus of this course will be scenework, and less about formats, with side coaching and notes.
