Rep City is where you get your reps and build your skills with sessions tailored to the students present. 

On a rotational basis, Rep City focusses on four pillars of long-form improv performance:

  • Stage Craft
  • Bold Moves
  • Listening & Support
  • Presence

While each term will have it's own over-arching focus, no matter the pillar you're working on our most talented and popular instructors will lead you for a term of exploration, fun and really honing in on all the skills required to successfully create sustainable improv comedy scenes  – all without the demands of pass/repeat evaluations.

The Development Track, and Rep City are the natural progression from our Starter Track classes, and often where many students spend some time before being invited to undertake the Performance Track. 

Whether you have been specifically invited to take Rep City or whether you're keen to make a return to improv after an absence, this is the perfect class for mid-level improv students who aren't involved in our Performance Track, as well as folks in the Performance Track and Advanced Play who are looking for a course that can develop the essential skills that underpin all of their advanced work.
