Improv Comedy for Beginners
Tuesday 21st October to Tuesday 25th November 2025 in Norwich
6 week evening course - Tuesday evenings, 19:30 to 21:30
This course is for anyone who wants to do it! Let our experienced improv coaches introduce you to the principles of this wonderful art form.
Perfect for people with no previous improv, comedy or performance experience or improvisers who are a bit rusty. You don't have to want to be a performer - come and discover the positive effects of fun, laughter and creative expression.
What to expect
- Group games and exercises
- Creating and playing characters in a variety of scenes
- Lots of laughter!
We have a minimum of 6 students required to run the course - if we have low numbers, we will be in touch in the week leading up to the first lesson to let you know that we may have to postpone the course - but this hardly ever happens!

Coach
Johanna Stirling
Two of Jo's passions are teaching and improv, so teaching improv is definitely her thing! She knows people learn best when treated with kindness, understanding and respect and are supported to be that teeny bit braver.
Jo has been super-enthusiastic about improv since a Dogface Improv workshop in 2018. She has attended countless drop-ins, courses, and guest workshops with Dogface, Jules Munns (And Also), The Free Association and many other wonderful improv coaches. She performs with several local troupes such as Ooh! Improv, Stirling & Knock, the Randomologists, and The Brontës Saw Us.
