What it is: An eight-week introductory-level improv or sketch comedy class at the Upright Citizens Brigade Training Center.
Why it’s awesome: Want to follow in the footsteps of UCB founders Amy Poehler, Matt Walsh, Ian Roberts and Matt Besser? Taking a class at the theater’s Training Center, where you’ll learn long-form improv or how to write short, comedic scenes, is certainly a good start. So long as you’re committed to comedy: Skipping class and tardiness are no laughing matter, as both are grounds for getting kicked out (no, seriously!). Upcoming classes include Improv 101 (Tuesdays 2:30–5:30pm, starting July 14) with Ari Voukydis, who’s appeared on VH1’s Best Week Ever and Late Night with Conan O’Brien.
