Improv 101 focuses on the 3 core principles of comedic improvisation: agreement, being active, and justification. We designed our classes to create an energetic and supportive environment for play. Whether you’ve never taken the stage before, you’re a seasoned improviser, or you’re simply looking to help yourself in your career and/or life, you’ll get a lot from this class.
Students must be 18 or older by the first day of class.
Laurie Wagner Storlie is a long-time actor, improviser and improv team coach who began her passion for the art of improvisation in the 1900’s. She is an alum of Second City/Hollywood and IO West (Improv Olympic) and honed her improv skills in Los Angeles, CA in the early 2000’s during what was known as the Great Improv Explosion; studying and performing with some of the great masters of improv. In 2004 her all-girl improv team W.I.N.K took the mainstage at IO West by storm, performing to packed houses of peers and professionals. W.I.N.K. was invited to the 2004 Southern Improv Festival in New Orleans where they took the coveted "Best in Fest" award. From there W.I.N.K. was invited to participate in the Del Close Marathon (NYC) along with a host of other improv festivals all over the country (Dirty South, Portland, Chicago, etc.)
In 2011 she became a mom, and naturally brought her improv skills to parenting. After seeing how natural and successful using improv skills as a mama was, she formed Improvised Parenting to help other parents navigate their parenting journey using the rules of improv.
Currently, Laurie teaches improv classes and coaches improv teams at ArtsQuest as well as improv skills and awareness for mental health and teambuilding through Improv For Everyday Survival.
