CLASS DESCRIPTION
Our eight-week Level Two class in longform improv comedy takes the basic tools of improvisation that you learned in Level One, and teaches you how to use them to create rich, compelling, and hilarious improv scenes. You'll learn how to recognize the game of the scene, and seize opportunities for patterns, connections, and heightening within and between your scenes that will serve as the building blocks for a longform piece. The class will culminate in a graduation performance in July.
Prerequisite: Level One intro to improv class. If you've taken such a class elsewhere, we want to hear about it, so please get in touch with us before enrolling! You can email us at commodorecomedy at gmail dot com.

Short answer: yes! We offer make-up opportunities along the way. We obviously prefer if everyone can come to all eight classes, but if you know you will miss one (or think you might), don't let that stop you from signing up. You can get in touch with us at
[email protected] if you have questions about this.
INSTRUCTOR BIO
Liz Marcucci is a cherished member of the Tampa Bay improv community. With over a decade of experience, she is an alumna of The Second City Conservatory, iO Chicago, The Annoyance Theatre, and the Bovine Metropolis Theater in Denver. Liz has shared her expertise by teaching at the Improv Retreat and participating in numerous intensives and camps across the United States.
Her approach to teaching, coaching, and performing centers on following the joy and embracing the unknown. Liz is dedicated to creating a supportive environment that uplifts her students, encouraging them to explore what truly makes their hearts smile and to honor that truth.
Improv, in her view, is for everyone: from the hobbyist and the teacher looking to refine their presentation skills, to the corporate professional aiming to improve in meetings, the budding entrepreneur seeking confidence in networking, and the aspiring comedian within us all.
In Liz’s class, the ultimate takeaway is, “You don’t need to be the funniest person in the room, just the most authentic.”
